Physics
A body is acted upon by two unequal forces in opposite directions, but not in the same line. The effect is that:
- the body will only have rotational motion
- the body will only have translational motion
- the body will have neither rotational motion nor translational motion
- the body will have rotational as well as translational motion.

Answer
the body will have rotational as well as translational motion
Reason — When a body is acted upon by two unequal forces in opposite directions, but not in the same line, then the effect is that the body will have rotational as well as translational motion.
