Question

Question 26 Suppose an ice skater is moving on the surface of a frozen lake at constant velocity. What is true about (outside) forces acting on the skater? Gravity can be ignored. They are equal in magnitude to the gravitational force and pointing upward. They all are perfectly horizontal. There are none. There could be some but they all cancel out.
