Introduction to Statics: Concepts, Principles and Units
ID: 2j5mfyqyg3
Start statics here: its basic models and principles, SI and U.S. units, and a five-step method for solving problems, with practice problems and unit converters.
Set Study
Notes, problems and apps put together in sections by a Hub 4 Mech member. Follow them in order.
- 1
NoteWhat Is Mechanics
Learn what mechanics studies, how it splits into statics, dynamics and other branches, and why statics comes first. - 2
NoteBasic Concepts of Statics Particle Rigid Body and Force
The basic quantities of statics and its three models (particle, rigid body and concentrated force), with when to use each. - 3
NoteFundamental Principles of Statics
The six principles statics rests on, from the parallelogram law to Newton’s laws and gravity, and how each is used in problems. - 4
NoteUnits in Statics Si US Customary and Conversion
How force, mass and length units fit together through F = ma, how to convert between SI and U.S. units, and how to write SI correctly.
