Which of the following objects is in dynamic equilibrium?

a. a car driving in a straight line at 20m/s

b. a book sitting on a table without moving

c. a boy jumping off a diving board into a pool

d. a motorcycle going in a circle at a constant speed

Respuesta :

a. A car driving in a straight line at 20 m/s.

Explanation:

An object is in a state of equilibrium when no force is acting upon it. There are two types of equilibrium; static equilibrium and dynamic equilibrium.

Static equilibrium is a state when a body is at rest.

Dynamic equilibrium is an equilibrium state when a body is moving at a constant velocity. (Rectilinear Motion).

A car moving in a straight line at 20 m/s has a constant velocity and hence no force is acting on it. So, it is in dynamic equilibrium.

A book sitting on a table without moving is not is dynamic equilibrium but in static equilibrium.

A boy jumping off a diving board in not in equilibrium as gravitational force is acting upon him and he has a changing velocity.

A motorcycle going in a circle at a constant speed has changing velocity because the direction of the motion is constantly changing hence it is not in the state of motion.
