Couple cannot produce a translational motion.
A. True
B. False
This question was addressed to me in an online interview.
This key question is from Forces of Nature in portion Gravitation of Engineering Physics I
Correct choice is A. True
For explanation: A pair of equal and opposite forces acting on a body along two different lines of action constitutes a couple. A couple has a turning effect, but no resultant force acts on a body. Thus it cannot produce translational motion.
