Question
What do you understand by the terms “balanced forces” and “unbalanced forces”? Explain with examples.
✓
Answer
- Balanced forces: If the resultant of all the forces acting on a body is zero, the forces are called balanced forces. These forces do not change the state of rest or of uniform motion of a body but can change the shape of the body.
- Unbalanced forces: If the resultant of all the forces acting on a body is not zero, the forces are called unbalanced forces. These forces change the state of rest or of uniform motion of a body.
