| Q. |
It is easier to carry two buckets of water in one hand each, than to carry only one in one hand because – |
| A. | weights of buckets are balanced |
| B. | centre of gravity falls within the body |
| C. | centre of gravity and centre of equilibrium fall within the feet |
| D. | resultant weight of buckets is zero |
| Answer» C. centre of gravity and centre of equilibrium fall within the feet | |
|
Explanation: When the buckets containing equal amount of water are held in both hands, weight is spaced out more evenly than it would be if one had to carry a single bucket. For balancing the weight, the centre of gravity and the centre of equilibrium should fall, in the present case, within the feet. |
