D. When sum of all forces acting on a body is zero, the body is said to be in a state of equilibrium. Correct Answer B and D

  • Force is a vector quantity.
  • Nuclear force is the strongest force.
  • Gravitational force is the weakest force, because the value of the gravitational constant is very low.
  • When the sum of all forces acting on a body is zero, the body is said to be in a state of equilibrium.
  • Two or more forces of equal magnitude but opposite directions, cancel out each other. Thus, the net effect on the body is zero. Thus, it remains in the state of equilibrium.
