Lami’s theorem: In statics, lami’ theorem is an
equation relating the magnitudes of three coplanar,
concurrent and non-collinear forces which keeps
an object in static equilibrium, with the angles
ditectty opposite to the corresponding forces,
A BC
sina ~ sinB siny
Where,
A, B, C are the magnitude of three coplanar,
concurrent and non-collinear forces which keeps
objectin static equilibrium, and a, Band yare
the angles directly opposite to the forces A, B
and Crespectively.
Polygon Law's of forces: If a number of forces
acting simultaneously on a particle be represented
in magnitude and direction by the sides of a
polygon taken in order, their resultant may be
represented in magnitude and direction by the
closing side of the polygon taken in opposite
order.
Newton's first Law of Motion: When viewed in
an inertial reference frame, an object either
remains at rest or moves with constant velocity
unless acted upon by an external force.
Varignon’s Theorem: The moment about any
point of the resultant of several concurrent forces
is equal to the sum of the moments of the
particular forces about the same point,Cet
