Can anyone explain the balance of the body in physics?

BALANCE: A body is balanced when it is stationary. That means there must be no net force or torque. Hence, any forces and/or torques on the body must be canceled or balanced by opposing forces and/or torques.

Explanation:

Hopefully this helps.

Please give me brainliest!

BALANCE OF THE BODY :(Related to Physics)

If two individual forces are of equal magnitude and opposite direction, then the forces are said to be balanced. An object is said to be acted upon by an unbalanced force only when there is an individual force that is not being balanced by a force of equal magnitude and in the opposite direction.

The balanced forces:

⋅ Cannot set any stationary body into motion.

⋅ May change the shape and size of soft objects.

⋅ Cannot change the speed/velocity of a moving body.

Unbalanced forces:

When the resultant of all the forces acting on a body is not zero, then forces are called unbalanced forces.

Example:

⋅ Game of tug of war: When the forces exerted by both the teams are equal, then the rope does not move. But, if the force applied by team A is greater than team B, then the rope, as well as members of the weaker team, i.e., B, will be pulled towards A. The unbalanced force can (a) Set a stationary body in motion.

⋅ Set a moving body at rest.

⋅ Change the direction of motion.

air exerts forces on falling objects near earth’s surface.

explanation:

the term 'free falls' refer to object that are falling towards the earth, in a situation in which gravity is the only force acting on the object.

for an object in free fall, the acceleration is constant (g, the gravitational acceleration), and so the velocity of the object constantly increases.

for objects near earth's surface, there is always another force acting on the object: the resistance due to the air. this force is opposed to the direction of fall of the object, and it is proportional to the velocity of the object, so as the object falls down, this force increases up to a point when it balances the force of gravity, and the object continues its motion at constant velocity (called terminal velocity). since in this case gravity is not the only force acting on the object, we are not in a situation of free fall.
