Composition and Resolution of Forces
Free PreviewWhat does the resolution of forces signify according to you? When you’re studying the fundamentals of mechanics you mostly deal with 2-D or sometimes 3-D systems. It is simple to…
Moment vs torque
Free PreviewWhat is the difference between moment and torque? In physics, they signify the same thing but in mechanics, they hold slightly different meanings. Both have the same unit i.e. N-m…
Parallel forces and couple
Free PreviewMany do not realize but we use couple forces every day. When an equal amount of force acts about a point of pivot in the opposite direction at different points…
Equilibrium of Forces
Free PreviewThe way you leave your room stays the same after coming back. A body tends to remain stationary or moves with constant velocity under equilibrium. A body can exist in…
Equilibrium of Strings
Free PreviewThe beauty of mechanics is that it deals with many real-world problems that we have almost always seen in our daily lives. When you study something that you’ve experienced first-hand,…
Linear Motion
Free PreviewThe complexity of an equation is majorly determined by the number of parameters that vary in it. It becomes obvious that linear motion is easy to understand and predict. Then…
Moment of Inertia
Free PreviewThe best way to understand Inertia is by comparing it to mass. What mass is in a linear system, Inertia plays the same role in a rotational system. When dealing…
Virtual Work
Free PreviewThis concept is just as it sounds. In short, a work that doesn’t happen.The concept of virtual work becomes convenient when the angle between the tension the direction of virtual…
