An object is pushed horizontally at constant velocity. What is true about the forces on the object?

a) The force or forces acting forward are greater than the force or forces acting backward.
b) The sum of all forces is directed forward.
c) The forces acting on the object can be said to be unbalanced.
d) The sum of all forces are zero.

Thank you!

If it does not ACCELERATE (change velocity with time), there is NO net force.
F = m a = m dV/dt = limit of (mass * change of velocity / change of time)
if no change in velocity, that means net force is ZERO
