Can there be displacement of an object in the absence of any force acting on it? Think. Discuss this question with your friends and teacher

Solution:

Yes, there can be displacement of an object in the absence of any force acting on it. If a single force acts on an object, the object accelerates. If an object accelerates, a force is acting on it.

Assume an object is moving with constant velocity. The net force acting on it is zero. But, there is a displacement along with the motion of the object. Therefore, there can be a displacement without a force.
