Applied Mechanics and Graphic Statics
A solid cylinder of mass M and radius R rolls down an inclined plane without slipping. The acceleration of center of mass of rolling cylinder is (where ‘g’ is acceleration due to gravity and 0 is inclination of plane with horizontal.)
If forces acting on a point can be represented of a polygon taken in order, their sides of a polygon taken in order, their resultant will be represented in magnitude and direction by the closing side
If a polygon representing the forces acting at point in a body is closed, the forces are in equilibrium
If forces acting on a point can be represented in magnitude and direction by the sides of a polygon taken in order, then the resultant of the forces will be represented in magnitude and direction by t
If forces acting on a point can be represented in magnitude and direction by the sides of a polygon in order, the forces are in equilibrium
