Is it possible for a body to exist somewhere in the universe that has no forces whatsoever acting on it? Explain why please.

Thanks!

No. There are four know forces: Strong Nuclear force, weak nuclear force, electromagnetism and gravity. For a body to exist it requires to be made of something, normal matter or dark matter as far as we know. Any type of matter is affected by gravity. Even if this object is as far of other object that the effect of gravity can be neglected, still there will be the internal forces that keeps its atoms subparticles together.

No forces whatsoever, no. You will always be subject to the cosmic microwave background (and probably a neutrino background from the big bang as well). And far off objects will have gravitational and E-M impacts on you. And even deep deep space has a certain amount of particles like protons floating around in it--some with very high energy.

Unknown. But unlikely. Current understanding of physical forces is that gravity is everywhere. The cosmic background radiation level and neutrinos permeates all of space. And at it's deepest level, space is a quantum foam of particles popping in and out of existence all the time. Plus who knows what dark energy is and if it is exerting a force as well.

No .. Electromagnetic and gravitational forces have infinite range.
