Your Ultimate Guide to JEE & NEET Question Solutions

An aircraft is moving with a velocity of $300\,m{s^{ - 1}}.$ If all the forces acting on it are balanced, then

A

It still moves with the same velocity

B

It will be just floating at the same point in space

C

It will fall down instantaneously

D

It will lose its velocity gradually

An aircraft is moving with a velocity of $300\,m{s^{ - 1}}.$ If all the forces acting on it are balanced, then

$F = ma$

If the forces are balanced, $F=0$, which implies $a=0$. If there's no acceleration, then the velocity is constant. The solutions are trajectories of constant velocity, which means the aircraft will move along a straight line with uniform speed.
