Question

The force which acts on a body directly or through a connector is called consequential force.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is B False

1. Consequential forces do not exist on their own but they come into play when a force is applied to a body.
2. The frictional force is a consequential force and comes into play when we try to move a body over the surface of another body.
3. Restoring force developed in spring due to the applied tensile force and is also a consequential force.
4. The force which exists on a body directly or through a connector is called contact force as is the case of pushing a body.

Hence, the given statement is false.
