The answer should be 'B.

To be in equilibrium sum of resolved part in both vertical and horizontal direction should be zero.

Susanta kumar sahoo said:   9 years ago
Equilibrium means the sum of all forces or the sum of resolve part, where both the horizontal and vertical direction is zero.

Namit said:   9 years ago
This should also include the verticle components of the forces.

Sanjay patel said:   9 years ago
The sum of the resolved parts in any two perpendicular directions are both zero.

Vijayalakshmi said:   8 years ago
Yes, Even I think the answer should be B.

Actually, the VECTOR sum of forces must be zero, not the sum of forces.

Ajaypal said:   8 years ago
The Answer should be D.

Arya said:   8 years ago
Yeah, the correct answer is b.

Saurabh said:   7 years ago
