Answer:

Choice B) B There is no net force on the hockey puck.

Step-by-step explanation:

In case when the hockey puck the slides with the same velocity or constant velocity so the force with respect to the hockey should contain that there is no net force as if the body moves along with the same velocity or the constant velocity so in this case the body acceleration is zero

And according to the newton second law i.e.

F = ma

In case when the acceleration is zero so the net force is zero

Therefore the option b is correct
