Adding Forces summary

Higher Ed
The resultant force vector is the vector sum of all other external forces. This can be found graphically by placing the arrows on top of each other or analytically by summing up all horizontal and vertical components.

SFD and BMD example 3

Higher Ed
Another way to draw the Shear Force Diagram (SFD) and Bending Moment Diagram (BMD) is to apply the formulas



dV/dx = - w

an

SFD and BMD example 2

Higher Ed
A distributed load is a force per unit length (N/m). The steps are:

1) draw th
e FBD
2) replace distributed load, w with a point force located at the centroid of the distri
buted load
3)
find reactions
4) make a cut...

Tension and Pulleys in static equilibrium Example 1

Higher Ed
Here we solve for the constant tension in the rope of a pulley system in static equilibrium. Remember the assumption that the tension is uniform everywhere is valid if:

1) The system is in static equili
brium
2) The rope i

Crash Course Physics #13: Statics

9th - 10th
The Physics we're talking about today has saved your life! Whenever you walk across a bridge or lean on a building, Statics are at work. Statics is the study of objects when they're NOT accelerating. In this video [9:07] episode of Crash...
