The Conditions for Static Equilibrium
Static Equilibrium: concept
The concept of static equilibrium in physics and a basic strategy to solve these static problems.
Solving Static Equilibrium Problems
Examples:
The diagram shows a beam hinged at P. The force of gravity on the beam is 425N. Find the tension in the wire.
An equilibrium problem is solved using torques
Examples:
What is the tension in the rope shown in the diagram if the uniform beam has a mass of 10kg?
