wats translational equlibrium?

OpenStudy (whpalmer4):

Try this link: http://bit.ly/1gDkCCG

OpenStudy (anonymous):

When no net force is acting on a body its said to be in translational equilibrium ! If you are sitting on chair, gravity is acting on you downwards, but normal force acting on you upwards... so net force on you is zero.. you are in translational equilibrium! Your ceiling fan , gravity is acting on it downward, and normal force upward.. so net force, hence its in translational equilibrium (but its rotating, so its not in rotational equilibrium)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

rvc (rvc):

thx @Mashy

rvc (rvc):

eg of rotational equlibrium @Mashy

OpenStudy (anonymous):

rvc (rvc):

fan rotating?

rvc (rvc):

earth

rvc (rvc):

@Mashy

rvc (rvc):

rotation

rvc (rvc):

@Mashy

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok.. that is goodenough but you can give any example in which object is NOT rotating.. :P.. cause its in rotational equilibrium !

rvc (rvc):

top spinning?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i said.. give any example in which object is NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT rotating!!!

rvc (rvc):
