Question
Chapter 3, Problem 36R
To determine
The term that describes forces on an object with a net force of zero.
Expert Solution & Answer
Answer to Problem 36R
The balanced forces best describe the forces on an object with a net force of zero and the correct option is option (A).
Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
A system of forces is considered in the condition of mechanical equilibrium when the net summation of forces is zero.
When the summation of net forces on an object is zero, it is said that the forces are balanced and object is in mechanical equilibrium condition. The concept of free body diagram, equilibrium equations of forces and moment are used for the analysis of mechanical equilibrium condition.
Conclusion:
Therefore, the balanced forces best describe the forces on an object with a net force of zero.
