Answer to Problem 1ASA

The condition for body to be in translational equilibrium when the total forces acting upon the body is zero.

Explanation of Solution

An object is said to be in static equillibrium when the object is moving with zero veolcity or it does not rotate at all. There are two types of static equillibrium:

  • Translational equilibrium
  • Rotational equilibrium

A body is said to be in the translational equilibrium if the net sum of forces on particle is zero i.e F=0. The body is at rest or it is moving with uniform velocity. The total external force acting upon body is zero.

Conclusion:

Thus, the condition for body to be in translational equilibrium when the total forces acting upon the body is zero.

(b)

To determine

The condition of rotational equilibrium.

(b)

Expert Solution

Answer to Problem 1ASA

The body is said to be in rotational equilibrium when the total torque acting upon body is zero.

Explanation of Solution

The condition for a body to be in rotational equilibrium is that the net torque acting upon body is zero or no torque acting on it.

The body under rotational equillbrium will be rotating with uniform angular velocity or not roating at all. That is the body do not experience angular acceleration.

Conclusion:

Thus, the body is said to be in rotational motion when the total torque acting upon body is zero.
