Answer:

The object will continue moving at 5 mph ( b )

Step-by-step explanation:

For an object moving at a constant speed, the forces acting on it cancels each other out, or there are no external forces atall. hence its net force = 0 N . so the true statement is that the object will continue moving at its constant speed of 5 mph because its net force = 0 N
