What else can I help you with?
What a vibrations?
A rapid linear motion of a particle or of an elastic solid about an equilibrium position.
Can a body in equilibrium if it is in motion?
It can be in equilibrium if in constant motion (constant velocity) as no forces are acting on it (no acceleration)
What are the conditions necessary for equilibrium in so far as linear motion is concerned Cite examples of moving bodies in equilibrium?
First condition for equilibrium. Insofar as linear motion is concerned, a body is in equilibrium if there is no resultant force acting upon it, that is if the vector sum of all the forces is zero. This condition is satisfied if the vector polygon representing all the external forces acting on the body is a closed figure.Equilibrant of a Set of Forces: This is defined as that single force that must be applied to keep a body in equilibrium when it is under the action of other forces. This equilibrant (sometimes called anti-resultant) must be equal in magnitude and opposite in direction to the resultant of the applied forces.http://blog.cencophysics.com/2009/08/composition-resolution-concurrent-forces-vector-methods/
Can a body be in equilibrium when it is motion?
Yes, a body can be in equilibrium while in motion if the forces acting on it are balanced. This means that the net force and net torque acting on the body are zero, resulting in no change in its velocity or rotation.
What is the difference between linear motion and random motion?
Linear Motion is motion of object/body along a straight line.Random Motion is the motion of an object/body along a disordered or irregular line.
Which quantity characterises the inertia of linear motion of a body?
The quantity that characterizes the inertia of linear motion of a body is mass. Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object and is a fundamental property that resists changes in the object's motion.
How a body gets rotational and linear motions in space?
Linear motion occurs when a force acts through the center of gravity of a body. Rotational motion arises due to a force applied anywhere else on the body.
Is a body in motion also in equillibrium?
Possibly. If there are no external forces acting upon it, and hence no acceleration, then yes, the body can be in equilibrium. But if there is no acceleration,would the body be in motion?
Uniform linear motion vs uniform circular motion?
Linear motion goes in a straight line (apply laws of physics: a body in motion will stay in motion unless otherwise impeded, most often by some type of friction or another body). Circular motion (or non-linear motion) involves revolutions and creates centrifigal force (measured in G's if you're in the air force)
What is a linear motion for science?
I believe linear motion is simply straight motion because linear means straight
What is an example of a body that is in motion but that is also in equilibrium?
The amount of money in a bank account never changes.When you see your girlfriend going out with a boy, you may be highly tensed. When you realize that boy is her brother, your tension goes down and will be in equilibrium state.
Can a single force applied to a body both its translation and rotational motion?
Yes, a single force applied to a body can cause both its translation (linear motion) and rotational motion simultaneously if the force is applied off-center or at a distance from the body's center of mass. This results in a combination of linear acceleration and angular acceleration.
