Assertion: The condition of equilibrium for a rigid body is- Translational equilibrium :

\sum \overrightarrow{\mathrm{F}}=0

, (i.e. sum of all external forces equal to zero.) Rotational equilibrium:

\sum \vec{\tau}=0

, (i.e. sum of all external forces equal to zero.)
Reason: A rigid body must be in equilibrium under the action of two equal and opposite forces.

View answer and explanation

Correct option: C

If Assertion is True but the Reason is False

Option C (If Assertion is True but the Reason is False) is correct because the assertion correctly states the conditions for equilibrium, but the reason provides an insufficient condition.
