Question

DIRECTIONS : Read the following statements and write your answer as true or false.

A body can be in equilibrium under the action of three coplanar forces.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A True

The explanation:

1. When three concurrent forces engage on an object to bring it into equilibrium, the resultant force is zero.
2. To put it another way, the resultant of any two of the three forces is equal to and opposes the third force.
3. The triangle law of forces can be used to analyze these forces.
4. A body can be in equilibrium under the action of three coplanar forces.

Hence, the given statement is true.
