Applied Mechanics and Graphic Statics
A rope is wrapped twice around a rough pole with a coefficient of friction ‘A . It is subjected to a force Fj at one end and a gradually increasing force F2 is applied at the other end till the rope just starts slip-ping. At this instant the ratio of F2 to Fi is
Three coplanar forces acting at a point will be in equilibrium, if each force is proportional to the sine of the angle between the other two
Three forces acting at a point are always in equilibrium
If three forces acting on a point can be represented in magnitude and direction by the sides of a triangle, the point will be in the state of equilibrium
Three coplanar forces acting at a point will be in equilibrium if each force is inversely proportional to the sine of the angle between the other two
