True or false Equal forces acting on one object in opposite directions are called balanced forces

True

Explanation:

Forces, equal in magnitude and opposite in direction, and cancel each other out are called Balanced Forces.

Balanced Forces DO NOT cause any change in the velocity of the object, but the Object may correspond to a change in shape or size.

Example :

Blasting a balloon by compressing it tightly with both hands, roughly with an equal force, is a practical example of Balanced Forces. In this case, the balloon before the burst stays at a state of rest and same after the burst. But the burst or the compression, causes a change in the shape of the balloon.

on passing the small ampere of electric current through the tube made of ar and hg of cfl generates uv rays which excites the fluorescent and thus emits the high radiation by consumption of just 5- 12 w in comparison to incandescent light which requires more power such as around 40 - 55 w to lighten.

moreover the life span of fluorescent or cfl is around 8000 h whereas the life span of incandescent is around 1200 h

hence, the building installed with incandescent lights bears more electricity bill.
