What is a Concurrent Force System?
Forces whose lines of action pass through a common point
What is the Principle of Transmissibility in force systems?
The state of rest or motion of the rigid body is unaltered if a force acting on the body is replaced by another force of the same magnitude and direction but acting anywhere on the body along the line of action of the replaced force
What does the Parallelogram Law state?
The combined effect of two forces may be represented by a single resultant force that is equivalent to the diagonal of a parallelogram which contains the two forces in adjacent legs
What is a Non-concurrent Force System?
Forces whose lines of action neither are parallel nor intersect on a common point
What does the Triangle Law state?
If two forces acting on a body are represented one after another by the sides of a triangle, their resultant
