Applied Mechanics and Graphic Statics
A ball moving on a smooth horizontal table hits a rough vertical wall, the coefficient of restitution between ball and wall being 1/3. The ball rebounds at the same angle. The fraction of its kinetic energy lost is
Three forces acting along the sides of a triangle are always in equilibrium
If the forces acting on a particle be represented in magnitude and direction by the two sides of a triangle taken in order, their resultant will be represented in magnitude and direction by the third
If three forces acting on a, point can be represented in magnitude and direction, by the sides of a triangle taken in order, these will be in equilibrium
Three forces acting at a point, can be rep-resented by the sides of a triangle, each side being in proportion to the force
