+Y V = 0, v F1 +X F3 F2 Particle Equilibrium • Newton’s 1st Law – Inertia • Particle equilibrium • Rest (Static) • Constant velocity Scalar components = 0 2 Equations Solve for at most 2 Unknowns
Free-Body Diagram (FBD) • What is it? • Sketch or diagram illustrating all force vectors acting on a particle (body) • Purpose? • A visual aid in developing equilibrium equation of motion • What is the procedure? • Draw isolated or “free” outlined shape • Show all forces • Characterize each force • Magnitude • Sense • Direction
+Y +X Example 10-01 • FBD Procedure • Draw isolated or “free” outlined shape • Show all forces • Characterize each force • Magnitude • Sense • Direction
Comprehension Quiz 10-01 • Select the Correct FBD of Particle A • Answer: D Hibbeler (2007)
Applications Hibbeler (2007)
Example 10-01 • For the engine in staticequilibrium, using a free body diagram, solve for the force magnitudesFAD and FAB. The engine mass is 255 kg.
Example 10-01 • Draw FBD +Y FAB A = 30 FAD +X W = FAC = mg W = (255 kg)(9.806m/s2) = 2.5kN
+Y FAB A = 30 FAD +X W = FAC = 2.5kN Example 10-01 • State Equilibrium Equation
Example 10-02 • The car is towed at a constant speed by the 600 lb force and the angle is 25°. Find the forces in the ropes AB and AC.
600 lb A 25 30 FAC FAB Example 10-02 (cont.) • FBD at Point A 2 Equations 2 Unknowns
600 lb A 25 30 FAC FAB Example 10-03 (cont.) • Equilibrium at Point A • Rearrange • Substitute
Example 10-03 • Find the forces in the cables and weight of sack B. • What point is first selected for the FBD?
Example 10-03 (cont.) • Unknown force magnitudes at Point C • FBD at Point E 2 Equations 2 Unknowns
Example 10-03 (cont.) • Equilibrium at Point E • Rearrange • Substitute
Example 10-03 (cont.) • FBD at Point E andPoint C
Example 10-03 (cont.) • Equilibrium at Point C
