NEET Physics Equilibrium of Forces MCQ Question
Consider a free-body diagram representing an object in equilibrium under the action of three forces: two tensions T1 and T2, and a third horizontal force F. Which condition must be true for the object to remain in equilibrium?
T1 cos θ = T2 and T1 sin θ = F
T1 + T2 = F
T1 = T2 = F
T1 sin θ = T1 cos θ = F
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
For equilibrium, the horizontal and vertical components of forces must separately sum to zero, as described in the NCERT context for point P under three forces.
