Questions  

Three concurrent forces of the same magnitude are in equilibrium. What is the angle between the forces? Also name the triangle formed by the forces as sides.

a
600, equililateral triangle
b
1200,   equilateral triangle
c
300, an isosceles triangle
d
1200,   an obtuse angled triangle

detailed solution

Correct option is B

If the resultant of  three concurrent coplaner forces is zero , then the force vectors must form a closed triangle and the sides represent the forces in the same order . If the forces are of equal magnitude then the triangle must be an equilateral triangle .So the angle between any two forces is 1200.
