FUNDAMENTAL PRINCIPLES OF MECHANICS

1. Parallelogram law of forces.

2. Principle of transmissibility.
3. Principle of superposition of forces.
4. Newton’s first law of motion.
5. Newton’s second law of motion.
6. Newton’s third law of motion.
7. Newton’s law of Gravitation.
1. Parallelogram law of forces.

▪ “If
  two forces, acting simultaneously on a particle be represented in
magnitude and direction by two adjacent sides of a parallelogram;
their resultant may be represented in magnitude and direction by the
diagonal of the parallelogram which passes through the point of
intersection.”

2. PRINCIPLE OF TRANSMISSIBILITY

▪ “If a force acts at any point on a rigid body, it may also be

considered to act at any other point on its line of action,
provide the point is rigidly connected with the body.
3. PRINCIPLE OF SUPER POSITION OF
FORCES.

▪ “If two equal, opposite and collinear forces are added to or

removed from the system of forces, there will be no change in the
position of the body. This is known as principle of superposition
of forces.”
 4. NEWTON’S FIRST LAW OF MOTION.

▪ “Every body continues in a state of rest or uniform motion unless it is

compelled to change that state by some external forces.”
▪ This law defines the nature of characteristics of force.
5. NEWTON’S SECOND LAW OF MOTION

▪ “The
  acceleration of body is proportional to the impose force and
takes place in the direction in witch the force acts.”
▪ Force

Where m is the constant representing mass of the body.

This law helps us to measure a force quantitatively.
6. NEWTON’S THIRD LAW OF MOTION

▪ “For every action there is always an equal and opposite reaction.”

▪ Which means that the forces of action and reaction between two
bodies are equal in magnitude but opposite in direction.
7. NEWTON’S LAW OF GRAVITY

▪ “  Two bodies are attracted towards each other along the line
connecting them with a force which is directly proportional to the
product of their masses and intensively proportional to the square of
the distance between them.”
