If the resultant of $n$ forces of different magnitudes acting at a point is zero,then the minimum value of $n$ is

Why are the states of a body at rest and a body moving with constant velocity considered equivalent in terms of net force?

Two masses $m$ and $M$ are attached to the strings as shown in the figure. If the system is in equilibrium,then

The following forces start acting on a particle at rest at the origin of the coordinate system simultaneously: ${\vec F_1} = -4\hat i - 5\hat j + 5\hat k$,${\vec F_2} = 5\hat i + 8\hat j + 6\hat k$,${\vec F_3} = -3\hat i + 4\hat j - 7\hat k$,and ${\vec F_4} = 2\hat i - 3\hat j - 2\hat k$. The particle will move:

Two equal heavy spheres,each of radius $r$,are in equilibrium within a smooth cup of radius $3r$. The ratio of the reaction between the cup and one sphere to that between the two spheres is:

Four forces are acting at a point $P$ in equilibrium as shown in the figure. The ratio of force $F_{1}$ to $F_{2}$ is $1: x$,where $x = ....$
