The net force acting is not zero on

  • a retarding train

  • a ball falling with terminal velocity

  • a kite held stationary

  • a truck moving with constant velocity


A.

a retarding train

The net force acting is not zero on a retarding train as a retarding train means it acquires some negative acceleration.
