Question

Is it possible for the net external force of a given system to be non-zero while the speed remains constant? Can the Second Law of Motion be applied to such a situation? No, it is not possible for the net external force of a given system to be non-zero while the speed remains constant. This occurs when force is perpendicular to velocity. Yes, it is possible for the net external force of a given system to be non-zero while the speed remains constant. This occurs when force is parallel to velocity.
