_____ = no acceleration
|
Equilibrium
|
|
____ = no change in translational or rotational velocity
|
No acceleration
|
|
Any system with ____ velocity is in equilibrium, even a system with constant 0 velocity
|

|
|
Draw all the force vectors on the diagram and use the equations:
|
The sum of the forces upward equal the sum of the forces downward
The sum of the forces to the left equal the sum of the forces to the right |
|
With this method everything is positive even ____.
|
gravity
|
|
_____ = acceleration
|
Non equilibrium
|
|
Non equilibrium
Pretend it is in equilibrium then . |
The sum of the forces upward equal the sum of the forces downward
The sum of the forces to the left equal the sum of the forces to the right Now you add ma to the weaker side |
|
Mass pulling on a rope and the rope is losing tension
Gravity pulls the mass downward and tension pulls upward, pretend it is in equilibrium |
Set upward forces to downward forces which gives us tension = mg
We then add MA to the weaker side, so we add it to the tension side: Tension + MA = mg |
|
____ - rotational quantity, vector, equal to the product of a displacement vector a force vector and the sine of the angle between these two vectors
