Applied Mechanics and Graphic Statics
One end of a light string 4 m in length is fixed to a point on a smooth wall and the other end fastened to a point on the surface of a smooth sphere of diameter 2.25 m and of weight 100 kg. The reaction between the sphere and the wall of the arrangement made is
The magnitude of the kinetic friction bears a constant ratio to the normal reaction between two surfaces. The ratio being slightly less than that in the case of limiting friction
The force of friction always acts in a direction opposite to that in which a body is moving
For moderate speeds the force of friction remains constant but decreases slightly with the increase of speed
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 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
If a polygon representing the forces acting at point in a body is closed, the forces are in equilibrium
