2 . The two forces are opposite in direction .
3 . The lines of action are on the same straight line .

2 . If a string passes through a smooth ring to be suspended freely
in it , then the tensions in the two branches of the string AB , AC are equal in magnitude
Equilibrium of a rigid body under the effect of three forces acting at a point :
Rule (1) :
If three forces acting at a point and can be represented by the sides of a triangle taken in the
same cyclic order , then the forces are in equilibrium .
Rule (2) : “The triangle of forces rule “
If a rigid body is in equilibrium under the action of three forces acting at a point and a
triangle is drawn whose sides are parallel to the lines of action of the forces and taken in the
same cyclic order , then the lengths of the sides of the triangle are proportional to the
magnitudes of the corresponding forces .

Equilibrium of a body placed on a smooth inclined plane
r
If a body of weight W is placed on a smooth inclined plane
which inclines by an angle of measure with the horizontal 𝜽

𝜽
, then the body will be under the action of two forces :
W
1 . The weight force W acting vertically downwards .
2 . The reaction force r of the inclined plane and it acts in the direction perpendicular to the
plane .
These two forces can not be in equilibrium , because they have two different lines of action
Therefore , in order to be in equilibrium , a third force must act on the body . It may be one
of the following forms :
1 . The force in the direction of the line of the greatest slope upwards .

the lines of action of these forces meet at a point .
Newton first law :
An object will remain at rest or in uniform motion in a straight line unless acted by an
external force .
Notes :
1 . The uniform motion = motion with uniform velocity ( a = 0 ) .
2 . An object will not change its state , this means that the resultant of forces affecting the
object = 0 , which means that the forces affecting the object in opposite directions are equal
3 . The object moves with maximum velocity ( or constant velocity ) = object moves with
uniform velocity .
4 . Always the resistance direction is opposite to the direction of the object motion .
5 . If the object moves under the action of resistances (R) proportional with its velocity (v)
then : =
6 . If the object moves under the action of resistances (R) proportional with square its
velocity (v) then : =

7 . We make all the acting forces on the object in two perpendicular directions :
A . parallel to the plane direction .
B . perpendicular to the plane direction .
And this is by resolution of the inclined forces .

Newton second law :
The rate of change of the body momentum ( m v ) with respect to time is proportional to
force causing it and in its direction .
F = m a ( in the case that mass is constant )
Where F is the resultant of the forces which affect the body in the direction of motion .
Important notes :
1.W=mg
Where : W is the weight of the body .
m : is the mass .
g = 9.8 m/s2
2 . Newton = kg . m/s2 , Dyne = gm.cm/s2 , Newton = 105 Dyne
3 . The perpendicular forces on the motion direction don't affect the motion and its
resultant = 0
4 . If the force stopped put F = 0
If you use brakes put F = 0
If the body moves on a smooth plane put R = 0
If you neglect the resistance put R = 0
Circular motion :
To create circular motion in a body it must be given some initial
velocity and a force must then act on the body which is always directed
at right angles to instantaneous velocity.

(1) Displacement and distance : When particle moves in a circular path
describing an angle during time t (as shown in the figure) from the
position A to the position B, we see that the magnitude of the
position vector r (that is equal to the radius of the circle) remains
constant. and the direction of the position vector changes from time
to time.
(i) Displacement : The change of position vector or the displacement r

of the particle from position A to the position B is given by referring
the figure. [ = 2 r sin ]
(ii) Distance : The distanced covered by the particle during the time t is given as
d = length of the arc AB = r
2 . Change in velocity : We want to know the magnitude

and direction of the change in velocity of the particle
which is performing uniform circular motion as it moves
from A to B during time t as shown in figure.
The change in velocity vector is given as
= 2 v sin
The direction of is shown in figure that can be given as
3 . Time period (T) : In circular motion, the time period is defined as the time taken by the
object to complete one revolution on its circular path. [ v = ]

where v is called the linear or tangential speed because at any given time, the velocity is
tangent to the circle . Although the velocity is constant in magnitude (speed), it is always
changing direction.
4 . Frequency (n) : In circular motion, the frequency is defined as the number of revolutions
completed by the object on its circular path in a unit time and its unit is s-1 or Hertz . [ T = ]
5 . Centripetal Acceleration :
(1) Acceleration acting on the object undergoing uniform circular motion is called centripetal
acceleration .
(2) It always acts on the object along the radius towards the centre of the
circular path.
(3) Magnitude of centripetal acceleration
6 . Centripetal Force
centripetal force is that force which is required to move a body in a
circular path with uniform speed. The force acts on the body along the
radius and towards centre.
Formulae for centripetal force F =

Final Revision On Mechanics

1 . Oblique projectile motion :

If a body is projected at from the horizontal at v0 m/s

** Vx in this type of projection is constant where :

v0x : is the component of the initial velocity in the direction of x- axis .

Vx : is the velocity of the body at any time t .

x : is the horizontal range .

t : is the time of flight .

Mr / David Tallat Ibrahim Page 1

v0y : is the component of the initial velocity in the direction of y - axis .

Vy : is the velocity in y-direction of the body at any time t .

Sy : is the displacement in y-direction .

g : is the gravity . ( = 9.8 m/s2 )

2 . The time of flight = 2 x the time to reach to the maximum height .

3 . For maximum horizontal range = 45

4 . The velocity of the body at any time t = v = vx2 + vy2

** Vx in this type of projection is constant where :

v0x : is the component of the initial velocity in the direction of x- axis .

V0y = 0 in this type of projection

t : is the time of flight .

Mr / David Tallat Ibrahim Page 2

Vy : is the velocity in y-direction of the body at any time t .

Sy : is the displacement in y-direction .

g : is the gravity . ( = 9.8 m/s2 )

t : is the time of flight .

The velocity of the body at any time t = v = vx2 + vy2

3 . Projectile motion in an inclined plane

If a body is projected by an initial velocity v0 at

an angle α in an inclined plane of an angle

** Vx in this type of projection is not constant

vx2 = v0x2 + 2gx sx , sx = v0x t + gx t2

Mr / David Tallat Ibrahim Page 3

v0x : is the component of the initial velocity in the direction of x- axis .

Vx : is the velocity of the body at any time t .

gx : is the component of the gravity in the direction of x – axis .

sx : is the displacement in x – direction at any time t .

t : is the time of flight .

** Vy in this type of projection is not constant where : vy = 0 v0y = 0

Where : v0y = v0 sin α

Sy : is the displacement in y-direction .

gy : is the component of the gravity of the direction of y – axis .

gy = = - g cos ( upwards ) , gy = = g cos ( downwards )

t : is the time of flight .

Mr / David Tallat Ibrahim Page 4

1 . The time of flight = 2 x the time to reach to the maximum height .

2 . For maximum horizontal range α = 45 -

3 . The velocity of the body at any time t = v = vx2 + vy2

1 . If the trajectory of a projectile is presented by : y = a x + b x2 then :

: is the angle of projection .

: is the initial velocity .

If F1 , F2 are two forces meeting at a point and their resultant is R then :

: is the angle between the resultant of the two forces and F1 .

Mr / David Tallat Ibrahim Page 5

1 . If the two forces are perpendicular : ( = 90 )

R2 = F12 + F22 and tan =

2 . If the two forces are equal in magnitude : (F1 = F2 = F )

and R bisects the angle between the two forces .
