a state of balance, especially between different forces or influences. Any disturbance to the body's state of equilibrium can produce stress. in equilibrium The point at which the solid and the liquid are in equilibrium is called the freezing point. We have achieved an equilibrium in the economy.
Equilibrium, in physics, the condition of a system when neither its state of motion nor its internal energy state tends to change with time. A simple mechanical body is said to be in equilibrium if it experiences neither linear acceleration nor angular acceleration; unless it is disturbed by an.
