The diagram shows the forces acting on an object at an instant of time. Which of the following statements about the forces is true? Select one answer.

The correct option is;

The object is in horizontal equilibrium but NOT in vertical equilibrium

Explanation:

The given given forces in the force diagram are expressed in vector form as follows;

Topmost force = 2·i + 3·j

The horizontal force = 3·i

The force at the lower section = -5·i - 2·j

Adding the forces together to find the resultant force gives;

= 2·i + 3·j + 3·j + (-5·i - 2·j) = 5·i + 3·j - 5·i - 2·j = 0·i + j = j

= j

Therefore, the horizontal component of the forces are balanced as they cancel out and the object is said to be in horizontal equilibrium

However, the object has a net total resultant force component in the positive vertical direction, the object is not in vertical equilibrium.

hello there!

your answer is a “generator”

a generator does not create energy but instead it transforms it.

it’s basically a motor working in reverse.
