Solution
The correct option is A True A couple is defined as a pair of two equal and opposite parallel forces acting along two different lines. Since net force acting on the body is zero, so the body is in translatory equilibrium. A couple produces torque which rotates the body. Thus the given statement is true that only a couple can produce pure rotation in a body.
