WHAT IS MECHANICS?
• Study of what happens to a “thing” (the technical name is “BODY”) when FORCES
are applied to it.

• Work problems in the units given unless otherwise instructed!
• 1 ft = 0.3048 m N.m
• 1 lb = 4.4482 N
• 1 slug = 14.5938 kg
• Answer is 5.31026116 N • m

NUMERICAL CALCULATIONS
(Section 1.5)
• Must have dimensional “homogeneity.” Dimensions have
to be the same on both sides of the equal sign, (e.g. distance
= speed time.) m=m kg=kg N=N
• Use an appropriate number of significant figures (3 for answer, at least 4 for intermediate
calculations).
• Be consistent when rounding off. For example: Round to three sig fig.
Today’s Objective:
Students will be able to :
• Define and Identify Vector
& Scalar
• Resolve a 2-D vector into
components.
• Add 2-D vectors using
Cartesian vector notations.

system.
b) Find the magnitude and
coordinate angles of a 3-

These angles are not independent. They must satisfy the following equation.
cos ² + cos ² + cos ² = 1
25
ADDITION/SUBTRACTION OF VECTORS (Section 2.6)
For example, if
A = AX i + AY j + AZ k and
B = BX i + BY j + BZ k , then
A + B = (AX + BX) i + (AY + BY) j + (AZ + BZ) k
or
A – B = (AX - BX) i + (AY - BY) j + (AZ - BZ) k .

IMPORTANT NOTES
EXAMPLE

Solution : First, resolve force F.
Fz = 100 sin 60° = 86.60 lb
F' = 100 cos 60° = 50.00 lb

Fy = 50 sin 45° = -35.36 lb

Now, you can write:
F = {35.36 i – 35.36 j + 86.60 k} lb
28
Now resolve force G.
We are given only and . Hence, first we need to find the value
of .
Now using the coordinate direction angles, we can get uG, and
determine G = 80 uG lb.
uG = cos i + cos j + cos k .

Now, R = F + G or

A=(0,0,14) D=(2,6,0)
rDA = (0-2)i+(0-6)j+(14-0)k
rDA = {-2i-6j+14k}ft
uDA = rDA/rDA
rDA = (22 + 62 + 142)0.5 = 15.36 ft
uDA = {-2i-6j+14k}/15.36
FDA = FDA uDA lb
