• Rigid bodies are those bodies in which the distance between particles is constant despite any kind of external force. So while studying the equilibrium of rigid bodies, we mainly aim to define the behavior of these constituting particles in changed conditions of force or torque.Since we are concentrating on the equilibrium of rigid bodies under motion, therefore we need to take both translational and rotational motion into consideration.
