Applied Mechanics and Graphic Statics
In a lifting machine a weight of 5 kN is lifted through 200 mm by an effort of 0.1 kN moving through 15 m. The mechanical advantage and velocity ratio of the machine are respectively
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
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
Three forces acting along the sides of a triangle are always 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
