Engineering Mechanics equilibrium_of_a_particle 3.1 Condition for the Equilibrium of a Particle • Newton’s second law of motion ∑F = ma • When the force fulfill Newton's first law of motion, ma = 0 a = 0 therefore, the particle is moving in constant velocity or at rest 3.2 The Free-Body Diagram • Best representation of all the unknown forces (∑F) which acts on a body • A sketch showing the particle “free” from the surroundings with all the forces acting on it • Consider two common connections in this subject – – Spring – Cables and Pulleys
