  1. Force Vector (cont’)

  2. 2.8 Force Vector Directed along a Line • Force F acting along the chain can be presented as a Cartesian vector by - Establish x, y, z axes - Form a position vector r along length of chain • Unit vector, u = r/r that defines the direction of both the chain and the force • We get F = Fu

  3. Example 2.13 The man pulls on the cord with a force of 350N. Represent this force acting on the support A, as a Cartesian vector and determine its direction.

  4. Solution End points of the cord are A (0m, 0m, 7.5m) and B (3m, -2m, 1.5m) r = (3m – 0m)i + (-2m – 0m)j + (1.5m – 7.5m)k= {3i – 2j – 6k}m Magnitude = length of cord AB Unit vector, u = r /r = 3/7i - 2/7j - 6/7k

  5. Solution Force F has a magnitude of 350N, direction specified by u. F = Fu= 350N(3/7i - 2/7j - 6/7k) = {150i - 100j - 300k} N α = cos-1(3/7) = 64.6° β = cos-1(-2/7) = 107° γ = cos-1(-6/7) = 149°

  6. 2.9 Dot Product • Dot product of vectors A and B is written as A·B (Read A dot B) • Define the magnitudes of A and B and the angle between their tails A·B = AB cosθ where 0°≤θ≤180° • Referred to as scalar product of vectors as result is a scalar

  7. 2.9 Dot Product • Laws of Operation 1. Commutative law A·B = B·A 2. Multiplication by a scalar a(A·B) = (aA)·B = A·(aB) = (A·B)a 3. Distribution law A·(B + D) = (A·B) + (A·D)

  8. 2.9 Dot Product • Cartesian Vector Formulation - Dot product of Cartesian unit vectors i·i = (1)(1)cos0° = 1 i·j = (1)(1)cos90° = 0 - Similarly i·i = 1 j·j = 1 k·k = 1 i·j = 0 i·k = 1 j·k = 1

  9. 2.9 Dot Product • Cartesian Vector Formulation • Dot product of 2 vectors A and B A·B = AxBx + AyBy + AzBz • Applications • The angle formed between two vectors or intersecting lines. θ = cos-1 [(A·B)/(AB)] 0°≤θ≤180° • The components of a vector parallel and perpendicular to a line. Aa = A cos θ = A·u

  10. Example 2.17 The frame is subjected to a horizontal force F = {300j} N. Determine the components of this force parallel and perpendicular to the member AB.

  11. Solution Since Thus

  12. Solution Since result is a positive scalar, FAB has the same sense of direction as uB. Express in Cartesian form Perpendicular component

  13. Solution Magnitude can be determined from F┴ or from Pythagorean Theorem,

  22. Equilibrium of a particle

  23. Chapter Objectives • Concept of the free-body diagram for a particle • Solve particle equilibrium problems using the equations of equilibrium

  24. Chapter Outline • Condition for the Equilibrium of a Particle • The Free-Body Diagram • Coplanar Systems • Three-Dimensional Force Systems

  25. 3.1 Condition for the Equilibrium of a Particle • Particle at equilibrium if - At rest - Moving at constant a constant velocity • Newton’s first law of motion ∑F = 0 where ∑F is the vector sum of all the forces acting on the particle

  26. 3.1 Condition for the Equilibrium of a Particle • Newton’s second law of motion ∑F = ma • When the force fulfill Newton's first law of motion, ma = 0 a = 0 therefore, the particle is moving in constant velocity or at rest

  27. 3.2 The Free-Body Diagram • Best representation of all the unknown forces (∑F) which acts on a body • A sketch showing the particle “free” from the surroundings with all the forces acting on it • Consider two common connections in this subject – • Spring • Cables and Pulleys

  28. 3.2 The Free-Body Diagram • Spring • Linear elastic spring: change in length is directly proportional to the force acting on it • spring constant or stiffness k: defines the elasticity of the spring • Magnitude of force when spring is elongated or compressed F = ks

  29. 3.2 The Free-Body Diagram • Cables and Pulley • Cables (or cords) are assumed negligible weight and cannot stretch • Tension always acts in the direction of the cable • Tension force must have a constant magnitude for equilibrium • For any angle θ, the cableis subjected to a constant tension T

  30. Procedure for Drawing a FBD 1. Draw outlined shape 2. Show all the forces - Active forces: particle in motion - Reactive forces: constraints that prevent motion 3. Identify each forces - Known forces with proper magnitude and direction - Letters used to represent magnitude and directions

  31. Example 3.1 The sphere has a mass of 6kg and is supported. Draw a free-body diagram of the sphere, the cord CE and the knot at C.

  32. Solution FBD at Sphere Two forces acting, weight and the force on cord CE. Weight of 6kg (9.81m/s2) = 58.9N Cord CE Two forces acting: sphere and knot Newton’s 3rd Law: FCE is equal but opposite FCE and FEC pull the cord in tension For equilibrium, FCE = FEC

  33. Solution FBD at Knot 3 forces acting: cord CBA, cord CE and spring CD Important to know that the weight of the sphere does not act directly on the knot but subjected to by the cord CE

  34. 3.3 Coplanar Systems • A particle is subjected to coplanar forces in the x-y plane • Resolve into i and j components for equilibrium ∑Fx= 0 ∑Fy= 0 • Scalar equations of equilibrium require that the algebraic sum of the x and y components to equal to zero

  35. Procedure for Analysis 1. Free-Body Diagram - Establish the x, y axes - Label all the unknown and known forces 2. Equations of Equilibrium - Apply F = ks to find spring force - When negative result force- indicates its sense is reverse of that shown on the free body diagram - Apply the equations of equilibrium ∑Fx= 0 ∑Fy= 0

  36. Example 3.4 Determine the required length of the cord AC so that the 8kg lamp is suspended. The undeformed length of the spring AB is l’AB = 0.4m, and the spring has a stiffness of kAB = 300N/m.

  37. Solution 1. Draw FBD at Point A Three forces acting, force by cable AC, force in spring AB and weight of the lamp. If force on cable AB is known, stretch of the spring is found by F = ks. +→ ∑Fx= 0; TAB–TAC cos30º = 0 +↑ ∑Fy= 0; TABsin30º –78.5N= 0 Solving, TAC = 157.0kN TAB = 136.0kN

  38. Solution TAB = kABsAB; 136.0N = 300N/m(sAB) sAB = 0.453N For stretched length, lAB =l’AB+ sAB lAB =0.4m + 0.453m = 0.853m For horizontal distance BC, 2m = lACcos30° + 0.853m lAC = 1.32m

  39. 3.4 Three-Dimensional Force Systems • For particle equilibrium ∑F = 0 • Resolving into i, j, k components ∑Fxi + ∑Fyj + ∑Fzk = 0 • Three scalar equations representing algebraic sums of the x, y, z forces ∑Fxi = 0 ∑Fyj = 0 ∑Fzk = 0

  40. Procedure for Analysis Free-body Diagram • Establish the z, y, z axes • Label all known and unknown force Equations of Equilibrium • Apply ∑Fx = 0, ∑Fy= 0 and ∑Fz= 0 • Substitute vectors into ∑F = 0 and set i, j, k components = 0 • Negative results indicate that the sense of the force is opposite to that shown in the FBD.

  41. Example 3.7 Determine the force developed in each cable used to support the 40kN crate.

  42. Solution 1. Draw FBD at Point A To expose all three unknown forces in the cables. 2. Equations of Equilibrium Expressing each forces in Cartesian vectors, FB = FB(rB / rB) = -0.318FBi – 0.424FBj + 0.848FBk FC = FC(rC / rC) = -0.318FCi – 0.424FCj + 0.848FCk FD = FDi W = -40k

  43. Solution For equilibrium, ∑F = 0; FB + FC + FD + W = 0 -0.318FBi – 0.424FBj + 0.848FBk - 0.318FCi – 0.424FCj + 0.848FCk + FDi - 40k = 0 ∑Fx = 0; -0.318FB - 0.318FC+ FD = 0 ∑Fy= 0; – 0.424FB– 0.424FC= 0 ∑Fz= 0; 0.848FB + 0.848FC- 40 = 0 Solving, FB = FC = 23.6kN FD = 15.0kN
