If three concurrent forces are in equilibrium what is the relation between any one of the three forces and the resultant of the other two forces?

They have equal magnitudes and opposite directions.


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/


Two forces 10N and 5N act on a body what could not be a resultant of these forces?

The magnitude of the resultant can be anything between 5N and 15N.


If a book remains stationary on a table are the forces acting upon the book in equilibrium what is the resultant of the force acting upon the book?

All of the forces together balance out. The resultant of the forces is therefore nil. That applies to all equilibrium.


What is th effect on the resultant of increasing the angle between the two forces?

The direction will change; the magnitude of the resultant force will be less.

Why should three forces which are in equilibrium be coplaner and concurrent?

If suppose they are not coplanar then resultant of any two cannot cancel the third one and so equilibrium cannot be maintained. Same way as the forces are not concurrent then the same balancing of the resultant by the third one will not be possible.


What are the conditions of equilibrium when a number of parallel forces are acting on a body can a moving body be in equilibrium explain?

The first condition of equilibrium can be applied on concurrent forces that are equal in magnitude, since these produce translational equilibrium. But if the forces are equal in magnitude but are non concurrent then even first condition of equilibrium is satisfied but torque is produced which does not maintain rotational equilibrium. Hence for complete equilibrium that is, both translational and rotational , both the conditions should be satisfied.


What the magnitude of resultant vector of two equal forces each of magnitude F is?

the resultant magnitude is 2 times the magnitude of F as the two forces are equal, Resultant R= F + F = 2F and the magnitude of 2F is 2F.


What is the Definition of polygon law?

All the concurrent forces acting at a point can be represented by a polygon's sides closing with the resultant force equal in magnitude and opposite in direction.


Can an object be in equilibrium if the object is acted on by two forces that point in mutually perpendicular directions?

no, if forces have magnitude gr8er than zero. u can check it in topic vector operation, resultant of 2 forces.


How does the equilibrant force compare with the resulltant force?

The resultant is a trigonometric function, usually using the Law of Cosines in two dimensional solution by vector resolution, of two or more known forces while equilibrant is equal in magnitude to the resultant, it is in the opposite direction because it balances the resultant.Therefore, the equilibrant is the negative of the resultant.


What are the examples of static equilibrium of concurrent forces?

In any situation in which an object doesn't move, it is in equilibrium.


What is equilibrant forces?

The force is said to be "equilibrant" when acting with other forces it would keep the body at rest ie in equilibrium. Hence equilibrant would be equal in magnitude but opposite in direction to the resultant of all the forces acting on the body.
