true or false A body that is not accelerating and not rotating is in static equilibrium. If the net force acting on the object is zero and the net torque at every point on the body is zero, the body is said to be in static equilibrium. If the torques that will produce clockwise rotations are equal to the torques that will produce counterclockwise rotations, then the object will not rotate.

Torque

Torque is the rotational equivalent of linear force in physics and mechanics. Based on the course of study, it is also known as the moment of force, rotational force, or turning effect.
