100 coplanar forces each equal to 10 N act on a body. Each force makes angle π/50with the preceding force. What is the resultant of the forces
A
1000 N
B
500 N
C
250 N
D
Zero
Answer
Zero
Explanation
Solution
Total angle = 100×50π=2π
So all the force will pass through one point and all forces will be balanced. i.e. their resultant will be zero.
