Introduction
• Treatment of a body as a single particle is not always possible. In
general, the size of the body and the specific points of application of the
forces must be considered.
• Most bodies in elementary mechanics are assumed to be rigid, i.e., the
actual deformations are small and do not affect the conditions of
equilibrium or motion of the body.
• Current chapter describes the effect of forces exerted on a rigid body and
how to replace a given system of forces with a simpler equivalent system.
• moment of a force about a point
• moment of a force about an axis
• moment due to a couple
• Any system of forces acting on a rigid body can be replaced by an
equivalent system consisting of one force acting at a given point and one
couple.

External and Internal Forces
• Forces acting on rigid bodies are
divided into two groups:
- External forces
- Internal forces
• External forces are shown in a
free-body diagram.
• If unopposed, each external force
can impart a motion of
translation or rotation, or both.

Principle of Transmissibility: Equivalent Forces
• Principle of Transmissibility -
Conditions of equilibrium or motion are
not affected by transmitting a force
along its line of action.
NOTE: F and F’ are equivalent forces.
• Moving the point of application of
the force F to the rear bumper
does not affect the motion or the
other forces acting on the truck.
• Principle of transmissibility may
not always apply in determining
internal forces and deformations.

Vector Product of Two Vectors
• Concept of the moment of a force about a point is
more easily understood through applications of
the vector product or cross product.
• Vector product of two vectors P and Q is defined
as the vector V which satisfies the following
conditions:
1. Line of action of V is perpendicular to plane
containing P and Q.
2. Magnitude of V is
3. Direction of V is obtained from the right-hand
rule.
sinQPV
• Vector products:
- are not commutative,
- are distributive,
- are not associative,

Moment of a Force About a Point
• A force vector is defined by its magnitude and
direction. Its effect on the rigid body also depends
on it point of application.
• The moment of F about O is defined as
FrMO
• The moment vector MO is perpendicular to the
plane containing O and the force F.
• Any force F’ that has the same magnitude and
direction as F, is equivalent if it also has the same line
of action and therefore, produces the same moment.
• Magnitude of MO measures the tendency of the force
to cause rotation of the body about an axis along MO.
The sense of the moment may be determined by the
right-hand rule.

Moment of a Force About a Point (Scalar formulation)
• Two-dimensional structures have length and breadth but
negligible depth and are subjected to forces contained in
the plane of the structure.
• The plane of the structure contains the point O and the
force F. MO, the moment of the force about O is
perpendicular to the plane.
• If the force tends to rotate the structure clockwise, the
sense of the moment vector is into the plane of the
structure and the magnitude of the moment is negative.
• If the force tends to rotate the structure counterclockwise,
the sense of the moment vector is out of the plane of the
structure and the magnitude of the moment is positive.

Varignon’s Theorem (Principle of Moments)
• The moment about a give point O of the
resultant of several concurrent forces is equal
to the sum of the moments of the various
moments about the same point O.
• Varignon’s Theorem makes it possible to
replace the direct determination of the
moment of a force F by the moments of two
or more component forces of F.

Example (Problem 4.22)
Before a telephone cable is strung, rope BAC is tied to the stake at B and is
passed over a pulley at A. Knowing that portion AC of the rope lies in a
plane parallel to the xy plane and that the tension T in the rope is 124 N,
determine the moment about O of the resultant force exerted on the pulley by
the rope. (Discuss Varignon’s Theorem).
