Statics
Statics studies the way that
forces
effect bodies that are in motion or are
stationary
View source
Why engineers care about statics
Engineers are concerned with the way that
mechanics
can be
applied
so that they can determine how objects will
react
to
applied forces
View source
Force
The action of
one body on another
A force tends to move a body in the
direction
of its
action
A force applied to a body has a tendency to
produce a rotation of that body
A force produces or tends to
produce a change in motion of a body
, if not then objects are in
static equilibrium
A force is
invisible
, but you can
see
or
feel the effect
of a force
No resultant force-
no change in state of motion
Action and reaction forces - are
equal
and
opposite
(static equilibrium)
View source
Three pieces of information required to determine/define a force
Magnitude
(how
big
is the force?)
Direction
(
angle
of the force)
Line
of
action
(
point
in space)
