NEET Physics Equilibrium of Forces Assertion Reason Question
Assertion (A): In equilibrium under three concurrent forces, the vector sum of the three forces must be zero.
Reason (R): For three concurrent forces in equilibrium, the resultant of any two forces must be equal and opposite to the third force.
Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A.
Both A and R are true, but R is not the correct explanation of A.
A is true, but R is false.
A is false, but R is true.
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
Both the assertion and reason are correct and based on equilibrium conditions where the vector sum of forces equals zero and the resultant of two forces must balance the third.
