MCQ
Which of the following quantities is zero, when a uniform object is being supported at its centre of gravity?
  • A
    Mass
  • B
    Weight
  • C
    Force
  • D
    Moment

Answer

  1. Moment

Explanation:

Force of gravity on the object acts at its centre of gravity. If the uniform object is supported at its centre of gravity, net torque acting on it becomes zero.
