Principle of Transmissibility of Forces states that, when a force acts upon a body, its effect is

maximum if it acts at the centre of gravity of the body
different at different points on its line of
same at every point on its line of action
minimum if it acts at the C.G. of the body
none of these.

Correct Answer: same at every point on its line of action
