Here's why:
* Newton's First Law of Motion (Law of Inertia): This law states that an object at rest stays at rest, and an object in motion stays in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.
* Frictionless Surface: In a frictionless environment, there is no opposing force to slow down the moving object.
Therefore, once the object is set in motion on a frictionless surface, it will continue moving at a constant speed forever without the need for any additional force.
