- AForce is required to keep it in rest state
- BNo force is acting on it
- ✓A large number of forces may be acting on it which balance each other
- DIt is in vacuum
✓
Answer
Correct option: C.
A large number of forces may be acting on it which balance each other
c
(c)
(c)
Object can be at rest only if net force acting on it is zero.
$\vec{F}_{\text {net }}=\vec{F}_1+\vec{F}_2+\vec{F}_3+\vec{F}_4+\ldots \ldots \ldots \vec{F}_n=0$
