To solve the question of finding an example of a body in rotational equilibrium but not in translational equilibrium, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Concepts - **Rotational Equilibrium**: A body is in rotational equilibrium when the net torque acting on it is zero. This means that the body does not experience any angular acceleration and remains in a constant rotational state. - **Translational Equilibrium**: A body is in translational equilibrium when the net force acting on it is zero. This means that the body does not experience any linear acceleration and remains in a constant linear state. ### Step 2: Identify an Example Consider a seesaw (or a balanced beam) with unequal weights placed on either side. ...
