2. A body of weight 100 N is suspended with the help of strings as shown in figure. The tensions T₁ and T₂ will be

T₁ = 70.2 N, T₂ = 80.65 N

T₁ = 10.2 N, T₂ = 20.2 N

T₁ = 73.2 N, T₂ = 89.65 N

T₁ = 100 N, T₂ = 200 N

Question 4 of 20

5. If no resultant force acts on a body then the body will be in

rest

motion

Question 5 of 20

6. A body is at rest though forces act on it. Then

net force on the body is zero

this is not possible

acceleration of the body < 0

all forces must lie along same line

Question 6 of 20

7. In mechanics, if the net external force on the particle is zero, then the particle is said to be in state of

accelerated motion

retarding motion

de-accelarated motion

equilibrium

Forty five degree

Hundred eighty degrees

Ninty degree

9. A mass of 6 kg is suspended by a rope of length 2 m from a ceiling. A force of 50 N in the horizontal direction is applied at the mid-point of the rope, as shown. What is the angle the rope makes with the vertical in equilibrium?

60°

40°

50°

30°

Question 9 of 20

10. Which of the conditions shows that the particles are in equilibrium state for two forces F₁ and F₂ acting on the body?

F₁= F₂

F₁= 2F₂

F₁ = -F₂

2F₁=F₂
