1.

The single vector which would have the same effect as all the original vector
s taken as one. (Resultant)
2. A quantity that has both magnitude and direction. (Vector)
3.The effective value of a vector in a given direction.(Component)
4.System of force whose lines of action passes through a common point.(Con Curre
nt Forces)
5.The force with which gravity pulls downward upon an object.(weight of the obje
ct)
6.The measure of the effectiveness of a force in producing rotation about an axi
s.( Moment)
7.Tangential force between contact surfaces opposing any impending motion. (fric
tion)
8.A condition of an object in equilibrium under the action of concurrent forces
where the object is rest and remains ate rest.( Static equilibrium)
9.A condition of an object in equilibrium under the action of concurrent forces
where the object is in motion with constant vector velocity.(Transitional Equili
brium)
10.(Tension of the string)is the force with which the string pulls upon the obje
ct to which it is attached.
11.(Normal Force)is the coumponent of a supporting force that is perpendicular t
o the surface being supported.
12.(kinematic friction)is defined for the case in which surface is sliding acros
s another at constant speed.
13.(Static friction)is defined for the case in which or a surface is just on the
verge of sliding across another at surface.
14.(center of Gravity) is the point at which the entire weight of the object may
be considered concentrated.
15.(component and polygon method) a method of finding the resultant of two or mo
re vectors where they are connected tip to tail in any order or preference.
