  2. Free body diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_body_diagram

    A force arrow should lie along the line of force, but where along the line is irrelevant. A force on an extended rigid body is a sliding vector. non-rigid extended. The point of application of a force becomes crucial and has to be indicated on the diagram. A force on a non-rigid body is a bound vector. Some use the tail of the arrow to indicate ...

  5. Force - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Force

    The SI unit of force is the newton (symbol N), which is the force required to accelerate a one kilogram mass at a rate of one meter per second squared, or kg·m·s −2.The corresponding CGS unit is the dyne, the force required to accelerate a one gram mass by one centimeter per second squared, or g·cm·s −2. A newton is thus equal to ...

  6. Statics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Statics

    Force is the action of one body on another. A force is either a push or a pull, and it tends to move a body in the direction of its action. The action of a force is characterized by its magnitude, by the direction of its action, and by its point of application (or point of contact). Thus, force is a vector quantity, because its effect depends ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centrifugal_force

    Centrifugal force is a fictitious force in Newtonian mechanics (also called an "inertial" or "pseudo" force) that appears to act on all objects when viewed in a rotating frame of reference.

  9. Friction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Friction

    The normal force and the frictional force are ultimately determined using vector analysis, usually via a free body diagram. In general, process for solving any statics problem with friction is to treat contacting surfaces tentatively as immovable so that the corresponding tangential reaction force between them can be calculated.
