Question

net force is zero,when an object is in ​

Answer 1

Answer:

is in equilibrium

Explanation:

The net force is the vector sum of all the forces acting on an object. When an object is in equilibrium (either at rest or moving with constant velocity), the net force acting on it zero.

Answer 2

Net force is zero, when an object is in equilibrium.

Explanation:

• When more than one force is acting on any body, the resultant forces is calculated by adding all the individual forces by taking direction of the forces into consideration.

The net force is classified as : Balanced force and Unbalanced force.  

BALANCED FORCE

• In the case of balanced force, the body is acted upon by forces in opposite direction.
• When equal forces act in each direction, it results in zero net force. And the body remains in equilibrium state.
• There is no acceleration in the body.
• If it was initially at rest, it remains at rest and if it was in motion, it remains in constant motion.

BALANCED FORCE

• When the force of direction is applied only in one direction, the net force is non-zero.
• Or when the forces acting on each side is not equal, then the net resultant force decides the direction of motion.
• There is acceleration in the system as a result of non zero resultant force.
