Wow, so we were all wrong haha. That's pretty interesting. I understand why the net force is zero, but it's hard to conceptualize that it's moving without any force.

I thought it was 100n to the right and 100n to left. The pull to the right being 100n and the friction being 100n to the left, hence no acceleration. It seems me there has to be a counter force of some kind and not simply the initial pull only

I don't have it on me but basically a force of 100N is pushing block B to the right at a constant speed. The question asks what the proper free body diagram for A is. The answers are: 100N to the right 100N to the left and 100N to the right Two 100N forces to the right No force at all...

I forgot to mention that there is no acceleration. Okay so you agree there us a force directed to the right on A. You disagree with the aforementioned conclusions though?

So this was a question that I had on a previous test and I'm looking for a definitive answer. The question is what horizontal force/s is/are acting on block A. I thought it was 100N to the left and 100N to the right, however some other students had argued it was only 100N to the right...
