Question

Five equal forces of 10N each are applied at one point and all are lying in one plane. If the angles between any two adjacent forces are equal, the resultant of these forces will be :
(1) Zero (2) 10 N
(3)20N (4)10 root 2N

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Hope you understood!!

Answer 2

Answer:

zero

Explanation:

there are 5 forces and each force lies on same plane and are equal in magnitude

now according to question the 2 forces have a fixed angle now the angle between force 1 and 2 will be @ angle between 2 and 3 will be @ angle between 3 and 4 will be @ angle between 4 and 5 will be @ and angle between 1 and 5 will be @ so if we just calculate the angle we b 72° now if we just try breaking the components we see that all forces get cancelled so resultant force will be zero
