Equilibrium is the state in which the competing influences of a system are balanced. In this experiment‚ four activities were conducted to study equilibrium namely Equilibrant Force‚ First Condition for Equilibrium‚ Locating the Center of Gravity and Second Condition of Equilibrium. The % Error obtained for the following activities were 14.13% and 2.35% for Activity 1‚ 4.90% for Activity 2 and 7.52% for Activity 4. Friction is the resistance to motion of one object moving relative to another

The findings suggest that culture of urine within four hours of voiding is likely to give a true indication
