Force is required to produce motion in a body. Once it gains motion‚ it will‚ without any further force‚ keep on moving with uniform velocity and zero acceleration only in ideal case where there is no friction force. If friction force was completely removable‚ everything in the universe would then keep on moving without any external force once it was set into motion. But it is a fact that friction can never be completely removed‚ thus the notion of ever uniform velocity is not possible in this real
