When forces F1 , F2 and F3 are acting on a particle of mass m such that F2 and F3 are mutually perpendicular ,then the particle remains stationary . If the force F1 is now removed then the acceleration of the particle is---

Answer»

The particle remains STATIONARY on the application of three forces that means the RESULTANT FORCE is 0.

This implies

F1 = - (F2 + F3)

Since, if the force F1 is removed, the forces ACTING are F2 and F3, the resultant of which has the magnitude of F1.

Therefore, the acceleration of the particle is F1/m
