Q: Force can be transmitted from one point to another along the same line of action such that the effects produced by the force remains the same is the:
  • A. Principle of Physical Independence of forces
  • B. Principle of Superposition of forces
  • C. Resolution of forces
  • D. Principle of Transmissibility of forces
Correct Answer: Option D - Principle of Transmissibility of forces :- This principle states that the condition of equilibrium or the motion of a rigid body will remain unchanged if a force acting at a given point of the rigid body is replaced by a force of the same magnitude and same direction, but acting at a different point, provided that the two forces have the same line of action. • It can also be states. "the point of application of a force may be transmitted along its line of action without changing the effect of the force on the rigid body"
