An object is acted upon by a system of parallel forces causing the object to be in state equilibrium. Which of the following statement is not correct
- the resultant of the parallel forces is zero
- the algebraic sum of all the moments of the forces is zero
-
all the parallel forces must not be equal in magnitude and direction
- the sum of forces in one direction must be equal to the sum of forces in the opposite direction
The correct answer is: C
