What are the conditions for equilibrium?
The two conditions of equilibrium are: 1. Concurrent Equilibrium the sum of vector forces through a point is zero. 2. Coplanar equilibrium, the sum of forces in a plane is zero and the sum of the torques around the axis of the plane is zero. These two conditions are similar to Ohms Laws in Electricity: Ohms Node Law the sum of the currents at a node is zero and Ohms Voltage law, the sum of the voltages around a loop is zero. These equilibrium conditions reflect the Quaternion mathematics that controls physics. Quaternions consist of a scalar or real number and three vector numbers. Equilibrium is the Homogeneous condition of a quaternion equation: the sum of the scalars or real numbers must be zero AND the sum of the vector numbers must also be zero. Thus there are TWO Conditions for Equilibrium. However if we were to use quaternions as nature does, then Equilibrium would be simplified to the zero quaternion condition.
Types of equilibrium?
In physics there are two common types of equilibrium: static equilibrium and neutral equilibrium. Equilibrium usually is related to potential energy, for a system to be at equilibrium it must maintain the balance between the two types of mechanical energy: potential and kinetic. The first equilibrium: static means that the system is in a relatively low (relatively means that there could be lower energy but the current states is a local minimum), thus small disturbances to the system will be returned to its original equilibrium. The other type of equilibrium is neutral equilibrium, the relative energies of the system is constant, thus disturbances to the system will move the system but it will remain at the same equilibrium value, and the system makes no effort to return to its original state. Please take a look at the graph for a visualization of these 2 types.
What are two common market forces?
Two common market forces are supply and demand.
When is equilibrium achieved?
In any market, equilibrium is achieved when the level of demand is equal to level of supply. This means that there is a perfect balance between the two variables.
What two forces regulate the free market economy?
Basically, the two forces are supply and demand.
What are the two forces that are in equilibrium in a star?
Hydrostatic and Equilibrium
What are the equal and opposite forces acting on your sun to keep it in equilibreum?
The sun is kept in equilibrium by the balancing forces of the outward pressure from the energy of the nuclear reaction of hydrogen into helium and the inward force of gravity. This state is called Main Sequence. However, the sun is not in perfect equilibrium because as the sun's core of hydrogen is depleted, the next layer out of hydrogen will begin undergoing a nuclear reaction, causing the sun to expand.
How does the sun keep its size and shape?
The sun maintains its size and shape through a balance of forces. Gravity pulls inward, trying to collapse it, while nuclear fusion at its core generates energy that pushes outward. These two opposing forces create an equilibrium that sustains the sun's size and shape.
What are the two types of equilibrium and how are they different?
The two types of equilibrium are static equilibrium and dynamic equilibrium. Static equilibrium is when an object is at rest, while dynamic equilibrium is when an object is moving at a constant velocity with no acceleration. Static equilibrium involves balanced forces in all directions, while dynamic equilibrium involves balanced forces with movement.
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?
If three concurrent forces are in equilibrium, then each force is proportional to the resultant of the other two forces. This means that the magnitude and direction of each force are determined by the other two forces, ensuring that the system remains in equilibrium.
If there are two equal and opposite forces on something you say the forces are?
You say that the two forces are in equilibrium.
When two forces are equal what do we say?
When two forces are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction, we say they are balanced or in equilibrium.
When two unbalanced forces cancel each other out they are in?
The forces are said to be in equilibrium in that case.
Can an object be in equilibrium if the object is acted on by two forces that point in directions that are not perpendicular?
Yes, an object can still be in equilibrium even if it's acted on by two forces that are not perpendicular. The forces just need to have equal magnitudes and be in opposite directions along the same line of action. This condition ensures that the net force on the object is zero, leading to equilibrium.
What two forces work together to keep the planets in orbit around the sun?
The two forces that work together to keep the planets in orbit around the sun are gravity and inertia.
Can an object be in equilibrium if the object is acted on by two forces that point in mutually perpendicular directions?
Yes, an object can be in equilibrium if it is acted on by two forces that point in mutually perpendicular directions. This is known as mechanical equilibrium, where the vector sum of all the forces acting on the object is zero, and the object does not accelerate.
What is the necessary condition for equilibrium of system of coplanar forces?
Coplanar or not, the two conditions for equilibrium are:The sum of all forces must be zeroThe sum of all torques must be zero.
