Introduction to statics
1-1 What Is Mechanics?
Mechanics can be defined as that science which describes and predicts the conditions
of rest or motion of bodies under the action of forces.

Statics deals with bodies at rest or moving with acceleration equal is zero.
Dynamics deals with bodies at motion where acceleration ≠ 0.
1/2 Fundamental Concepts and Applications
The study of elementary mechanics rests on six fundamental principles based on
experimental evidence.
1. The parallelogram law for the addition of forces: This states that two forces
acting on a particle may be replaced by a single force , called their resultant,
obtained by drawing the diagonal of the parallelogram which has sides equal to
the given forces.
2. The principles of transmissibility: This states that the conditions of equilibrium
or of motion of a rigid body will remain unchanged if a force acting at a given
point of the rigid body is replaced by a force of the same magnitude and same

direction, but acting at different point. Provided that the two forces have the
line of action.
3. Newton's three fundamental laws:
i.
First law
If the resultant force acting on a particle is zero, the particle remain at
rest (if originally at rest) or will move with constant speed in a straight
line (if originally is motion).
ii.
Second law
If the resultant force acting on a particle is not zero, the particle will
have an acceleration proportional to the magnitude of the resultant and
in the direction of this resultant force.

= . , = . , = . iii.
Third law
The forces of action and reaction between bodies in contact have the
same magnitude, same line of action, and opposite sense.
4. Newton's law of gravitation:
This states that two particles of mass M and m are mutually attracted with
equal and opposite forces F and –F Fig. (1-1) of magnitude F given by the
formula
= .
. (1.2)
Where
F = the mutual force of attraction between two particles
G = universal constant called the constant of gravitation.
M, m = the masses of the two particles
r = distance between the two particles.
The magnitude W of the weight of a particle of mass m may be expressed
as:

In mechanics we use four fundamental quantities called dimensions. These are length,
mass, force, and time. The four fundamental dimensions and their units and symbols
in the two systems are summarized in the following table.

International system of unit
The unit of force is a derived unit. It is called the Newton (N) and is defined as the
force which gives an acceleration of 1 m/s2 to a mass 1 kg Fig. (1-2) from Eq. (1.1)
we write:
= (1). (1 ⁄ ) = 1. ⁄ (1.4)
a =1 m/s2
m = 1 kg
F =1 N
Fig. (1.2)
The weight of the body, or the force of gravity exerted on the body, should, like any
other force, be expressed in Newton. From Eq. (1.3) it follows that the weight of a
body of mass 1 kg Fig. (1-3) is
= . = (1). (9.81 ⁄ ) = 9.81(1.5)
m = 1 kg
a =9.81 m/s2
W =9.81 N

The unit of mass is a slug can be derived from the equation F = m.a after substituting
1 Ib and 1 ft/s2 for F and a respectively Fig. (1-4). We write
F = m.a
1 Ib = (1 slug). (1 ft/s2)
