A160.-kilogram space vehicle is traveling along a straight line at a constant speed of 800. meters per second. the magnitude of the net force on the space vehicle is

The magnitude of the force on the space vehicle is 0 N

Explanation:

Force is defined as the push or pull on an object with some mass that causes change in its velocity.

It is also defined as the mass multiplied by the acceleration of the object.

Mathematically,

where,

F = force exerted on the space vehicle

m = mass of the space vehicle = 160 kg

a = acceleration of the space vehicle =    (Speed is constant)

Putting values in above equation, we get:

Hence, the magnitude of the force on the space vehicle is 0 N
