Stable equilibrium is:

a. an equilibrium state where any small rotation results in a torque that acts to produce rotation back in the opposite direction.
b. any form of equilibrium, because all equilibrium conditions are stable.
c. an equilibrium state where nothing is moving.
d. an equilibrium state where there is no net torque or net force.
e. an equilibrium state where no torque is involved.
