Question

Which of the following is not a condition of equilibrium?

• A. The resultant of all the forces acting on the body should be equal to zero.
• B. The resultant of all the forces acting on the body about the point of rotation should be equal to zero.
• C. Both A and B
• D. None

Answer 1

The correct option is C Both A and B

Both the above options are conditions for a body to be on equilibrium and for equilibrium, sum of anticlockwise moments about the axis of rotation must be equal to the sum of clockwise moments about the same axis.
