Answer to Problem 1FC

The correct option is, “(d) The body can have translational and rotational motions, as long as its translational acceleration and angular acceleration are zero”.

Explanation of Solution

A rigid body is said to be in equilibrium, if its translational acceleration and angular rotational acceleration are zero. When a body is moving with a uniform velocity its translational acceleration is zero but its translational motion is not zero. When a body is moving with a uniform angular velocity, its angular acceleration is zero but its angular motion is not zero.

Therefore, a rigid body is said to be in equilibrium, if the body can have the translational and rotational motions, as long as its translational acceleration and angular acceleration are zero.

Conclusion:

Hence, the correct option is, “(d) The body can have translational and rotational motions, as long as its translational acceleration and angular acceleration are zero”.
