    Question

    Which of the following states that, "If a body is in equilibrium, under the action of three concurrent forces, each force is proportional to the sine of the angle between the other two forces"?

    A.

    Parallelogram law of forces

    B.

    Varignon's theorem

    C.

    Transmissibility of forces

    D.

    Lami's theorem

    Correct option is D


    Lami's theorem states that "If a body is in equilibrium under the action of three concurrent forces, each force is proportional to the sine of the angle between the other two forces." This theorem is used to solve problems involving equilibrium of a body acted upon by three forces, providing a relationship between the magnitudes of the forces and the angles between them.
