statics
By possessing an understanding of Newton's Laws, following these three laws of graphical solutions, and
understanding vector algebra you can solve most engineering static problems.
Systems of Force
Systems of force acting on objects in equilibrium can be classified as either concurrent or nonconcurrent
and as either coplanar or noncoplanar. This gives us four general categories of systems.
The first category, concurrent-coplanar forces occur when the lines of action of all forces lie in the

find the resultant of these forces it is best to resolve each
force into components along three axes that make angles of 90 degrees with each other.
Nonconcurrent-noncoplanar forces are when the lines of action of all forces do not pass through a
common point and the forces do not all lie in the same plane.
