... The above condition is sufficient for a point-like particle to be at its static equilibrium. However for object with size this is not sufficient. One more condition is needed. What is it? Let’s consider two forces equal magnitude but opposite direction acting on a rigid object as shown in the figure ...

Determining the Relationship Between Elastic
... An experiment was carried out in order to assess the relationship between the length of elastic string and the maximum acceleration of the bungee system. It was hypothesized that increasing the elastic string length would decrease the maximum acceleration. Using Newton’s Second Law of Motion, the ma ...
