Which is the correct statement about law of polygon of forces?
Aif a polygon representing forces acting at a point is closed then forces are in equilibrium
Bnone of the above.
Cif any number of forces acting at a point can be represented in direction and magnitude by the sides of a polygon, then the forces are in equilibrium
Dif any number of forces acting at a point can be represented by the sides
Eif any number of forces acting at a point can be represented in direction and magnitude by the sides of a polygon taken in order, then the forces are in equilibrium
Correct answer
E. if any number of forces acting at a point can be represented in direction and magnitude by the sides of a polygon taken in order, then the forces are in equilibrium
Explanation
The correct answer is if any number of forces acting at a point can be represented in direction and magnitude by the sides of a polygon taken in order, then the forces are in equilibrium.
