Question

100 coplanar forces each equal to 10 N act on a body. Each force makes angle $\frac{\pi }{50}$ with the preceding force. What is the resultant of the forces

• A. 1000 N
• B. 500 N
• C. 250 N
• D. Zero

Answer 1

The correct option is D Zero

Total angle $=100\times \frac{\pi }{50}=2\pi$
So all the force will pass through one point and all forces will be balanced. i.e. their resultant will be zero.
