(A) : If a body is in translational equilibrium it need not to be in rotational equilibrium. (R ) : In translation equilibrium net force is zero.

The sum of magnitudes of two forces acting at a point is 16N. If their resultant is normal to the smaller force and has a magnitude of 8N. Then the forces are:

(A ): A charge is lying at the centre of the line joining two similar charges each which are fixed. The system will be in equilibrium if that charge is one fourth of the similar charges. (R ): For charge to be in equilibrium, sum of the forces on charge due to rest of the two charges must be zero.
