Three concurrent co-planar forces \(1 \mathrm{~N}, 2 \mathrm{~N}\) and \(3 \mathrm{~N}\) acting along different directions on a body

  1. A can keep the body in equilibrium if \(2 \mathrm{~N}\) and \(3 \mathrm{~N}\) act at right angle
  2. B can keep the body in equilibrium if \(1 \mathrm{~N}\) and \(2 \mathrm{~N}\) act at right angle
  3. C cannot keep the body in equilibrium
  4. D can keep the body in equilibrium in \(1 \mathrm{~N}\) and \(3 \mathrm{~N}\) act at an acute angle
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) cannot keep the body in equilibrium

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

If we keep \(1 \mathrm{~N}\) and \(2 \mathrm{~N}\) forces act in same direction then these are balanced by \(3 \mathrm{~N}\) force, but this is against statement of question. Hence, options (c) is correct.
