  1. CHAPTER TWO Force Vectors

  2. Line of action Magnitude Sense 2.1 Scalars and Vectors • Force Vectors • Scalars : A quantity represented be a number (positive or negative) Ex: Mass, Volume, Length (in the book scalars are represented by italics) • Vectors : A quantity which has both A – magnitude (scalar) B – direction (sense) Ex: position, force, moment

  3. Forces • Classification of Forces • Contact 1 – Contacting or surface forces (mechanical) 2 – Non-Contacting or body forces (gravitational, weight) • Area 1 – Distributed Force, uniform and non-uniform 2 – Concentrated Force

  4. Forces • Classification of Forces • Force System 1 – Concurrent : all forces pass through a point 2 – Coplanar : in the same plane 3 – Parallel : parallel line of action 4 – Collinear : common line of action • Three Types 1 – Free (direction, magnitude and sense) 2 – Sliding 3 – Fixed A O Origin

  5. 2.2 Basic Vector Operations Properties of Vectors 1 – Vector Addition 2 – Vector Subtraction 3 – Vector Multiplication

  9. Parallelogram Law Properties of Parallelogram • A – sum of the three angles in a triangle is 180o • B – sum of the interior angles is 360o • C- opposite sides are equal

  11. A - B A A -B B Vector Subtraction • Vector Subtraction

  12. 2.3 Vector addition of forces If we consider, only two forces at a time then the result can be obtained using parallelogram law, and by using law of sines and cosines of triangles. Even if we have multiple (say 5) forces, we take two at a time to resolve the resultant one by one. Consider another example in Example 2.4 (a) page 24 Given To find: Resultant Procedure: Use law of cosines to find the magnitude, law of sines find the angles

  13. 2.3 Vector addition of forces (example 2.4) Given To find: Solution: • Draw the vector diagram • Use the sine law to find

  14. z z n en k A z y y y j i x x x 2.4 Cartesian Coordinate Systems A much more logical way to add/subtract/manipulate vectors is to represent the vector in Cartesian coordinate system. Here we need to find the components of the vector in x,y and z directions. • Simplification of Vector Analysis

  15. ^ en A Vector Representation in terms unit vector Suppose we know the magnitude of a vector in any arbitrary orientation, how do we represent the vector? Unit Vector : a vector with a unit magnitude

  16. z y x 2.5 Right-Handed Coordinate System • Right-Handed System • If the thumb of the right hand points in the direction of the positive z-axis when the fingers are pointed in the x-direction & curled from the x-axis to the y-axis.

  24. 2.6 Addition/Subtraction of Cartesion vectors Since any vector in 3-D can be expressed as components in x,y,z directions, we just need to add the corresponding components since the components are scalars. Then the addition Then the subtraction

  25. 2.6 ---Example 2-9, pg 41 Determine the magnitude and the coordinate direction angles of the resultant force on the ring Solution:

  26. From these components, we can determine the angles 2.6 ---Example 2-9…2 Unit vector and direction cosines
