Explanation :

The machines that makes our work easier are termed as simple machines. For examples wheel and axle, lever, wedge etc.

The machines that are made up of simple machines are called compound machines.

A <u>stapler</u> is a machine which contains a lever and wedge that combine to make work easier. It is one of the compound machines. The topmost part of the arm of the stapler is a lever. When it punches a paper it becomes a wedge (fig).

What is an essential characteristic of an object in equilibrium?
bulgar [2K]

Answer:

2) zero acceleration

Explanation:

Motion can be defined as a change in the location (position) of a physical object or body with respect to a reference point.

This ultimately implies that, motion would occur as a result of a change in location (position) of an object with respect to a reference point or frame of reference i.e where it was standing before the effect of an external force.

Mathematically, the motion of an object is described in terms of time, distance, speed, velocity, position, displacement, acceleration, etc.

In physics, acceleration can be defined as the rate of change of the velocity of an object with respect to time.

Generally, an object is said to be in equilibrium when neither the energy possessed by the object not state of motion changes with respect to time. Thus, the vector sum of all the forces acting upon an object that's in equilibrium is zero.

In conclusion, an essential characteristic of an object in equilibrium is zero (0) acceleration because there's no change in its velocity with respect to time.
