# Suppose an object is accelerated by a force of \( 100 \) \( \text{N} \). Suddenly a second force of \( 100 \) \( \text{N} \) in the opposite direction is exerted on the object, so that the forces cancel. The object

Suppose an object is accelerated by a force of \( 100 \) \( \text{N} \). Suddenly a second force of \( 100 \) \( \text{N} \) in the opposite direction is exerted on the object, so that the forces cancel. The object

- **A.** is brought to rest rapidly.
- **B.** decelerates gradually to rest.
- **C.** continues at the velocity it had before the second force was applied.
- **D.** is brought to rest and then accelerates in the direction of the second force.
