The principle of transmissibility of forces states that, when a force acts upon a body, its effect is
same at every point on its line of action
different at different points on its line of action
minimum, if it acts at the centre of gravity of the body
maximum, if it acts at the centre of gravity of the body
Answer: Option

The correct answer should be, same at every point on its line of action.

The principle of transmissibility of forces states that, the effect of an external force on a rigid body remains unchanged if that force is moved along its line of action.

Warning: This principle is not valid for deformable bodies. C is correct answer.

They didn't state if the body is rigid or not. Personally I would go for A because in undergraduate, static mechanics we mostly, if not only, deal with rigid bodies.

The answer must be option A. Same at every point on its line of action.

I also agree with option (A).

The principle of transmissibility of forces states that the effect of the force is not alternate if its point of application is transmitted in a direction (i.e., anywhere in the line of action) of force.

So the answer is (A).
