Page 3 - I. — Every body continues in its state of rest or of uniform motion in a straight line, except in so far as it is compelled by force to change that state.
Page 11 - If three forces acting at a point are in equilibrium they can be represented in magnitude and direction by the three sides of a triangle taken in order.
Page 3 - To every action there is always an equal and contrary reaction; or, the mutual actions of any two bodies are always equal and oppositely directed in the same straight line.
Page 20 - moment of a force" with respect to a point is the product of the force and the perpendicular distance from the given point to the line of action of the force.
Page 134 - Expressed in words, this equation states that the polar moment of inertia for an area, with respect to an axis perpendicular to its plane, is equal to the sum of the moments of inertia about any two mutually perpendicular axes in its plane that intersect on the polar axis.
Page 125 - ... solid thus generated is equal to the product of the revolving area and the path described by the center of gravity of the plane area during the revolution.
Page 18 - If three forces, acting at a point, be represented in magnitude and direction by the sides of a triangle taken in order, they will be in equilibrium.
Page 165 - Steiner. is true for bath a plane laminar body and a thin three-dimensional body, and states that the moment of inertia of a body about any axis is equal to its moment of inertia about a parallel axis through its...
Page 107 - Their points of application remain the same. 2°. Their relative magnitudes are unchanged. 3°. They remain parallel to each other. Hence, in finding the centre of a set of parallel forces, we may suppose the forces turned through...
Page 29 - The perpendicular distance between the lines of action of the two forces is called the arm, and the product of one of the forces and the arm is called the moment of the couple. A...
