OSU Resultant of Concurrent Forces in A Plane Questions – Description
Chapter 2 Concurrent Forces – Learning Objectives:
The meaning of coplanar, concurrent forces
Understand what is meant by ‘resultant’ of forces
Graphical, geometric (parallelogram, triangle), algebraic (Rectangular Components) and vector methods of finding resultant
Finding resultant of two coplanar, concurrent forces
Finding resultant of more than two coplanar, concurrent forces
Add and subtract force vectors
Chapter 3 Equilibrium in 2D – Learning Objectives:
Understand and draw FBDs: tension components (strings, cables, cords, ropes); tension – compression components (links); pulleys
Determine unknown forces when a point on a body is in equilibrium
Recognize statically indeterminate problems
Analyze bodies in equilibrium under the action of four or more coplanar, concurrent forces
Chapter 4 (contd.): Non-concurrent Forces, Couples, Moments – Learning Objectives
Understand moment of a force i.e. the rotational effect of a force, Varignon’s theorem
Find magnitude and direction of the resultant on NON-CONCURRENT forces – these non-concurrent forces could be either parallel or nonparallel
Determine moments of couples
Resolve a force into a force-couple combination
Find resultant (magnitude and direction) of uniformly and triangularly distributed loads
Calculus based methods for finding resultant of distributed loads
