The ends of a string weighing w/metre are attached to two points at the same horizontal level. If the central dip is very small, the horizontal tension of the string throughout is
-
If two forces P and Q (P greater than Q) act on the same straight line but in opposite direction, their resultant, is
-
If the angle between the applied force and the direction of motion of a body, is between 90° and 180°, the work done, is called

To avoid bending action at the base of a pier,
A.
three forces acting at a point are always in equilibrium |
B.
if three forces acting on a point can be represented in magnitude and direction by the sides of a triangle, the point will be in the state of equilibrium |
C.
three coplaner forces acting at a point will be in equilibrium, if each force is proportional to the sine of the angle between the other two |
D.
three coplaner forces acting at a point will be in equilibrium if each force is inversely proportional to the sine of the angle between the other two |
E.
none of these. |
