TRANSCRIPT
The force that act on the object are balanced in all direction.
The force cancel each other, so that the resultant force or net force is zero.
Newton’s Third Law of motion states that to every action there is an equal but opposite reaction.
Is a single force that represents the combined effect of 2 or more forces in magnitude and direction.

2. Santhiran pulls a 5 kg crate on the floor with a force of 35 N.
Find the horizontal component of the force.
If the crate is moving with constant velocity, what is the friction against the crate.
If the friction against the box is 8 N, what is the acceleration of the crate?

ANALYSING FORCES IN EQUILIBRIUM
2 types:A. Object in equilibrium on an inclined
plane.I. If the object is at rest.II. If the object is moving on a smooth
inclined plane.
B. Three forces in equilibrium.
ANALYSING FORCES IN EQUILIBRIUM A. Object in equilibrium on an inclined plane.
I. If the object is at rest.
The net force perpendicular to the plane = 0 Normal reaction – mg cos = 0
F normal = mg cos
The net force parallel to the plane = 0 Frictional force – mg sin = 0
F friction = mg sin

II. If the object is moving on a smooth inclined plane, vertical component of the forces are balanced but the force down the plane is not balanced.

Example A carton of mass 5 kg is at rest on an inclined
plane making an angle of 15° with the horizontal. Find the frictional force and the normal force acting on the carton.

B. Three forces in equilibrium
Problem involving 3 forces in equilibrium can be solving using :
i. Resolution of forces Total force to the left = total force to the right Total force upward = total force downward
ii. Drawing a closed tail- to –tip ( triangle method)

1. Lift ( refer the notes)2. Pulley system
2) Pulley system A frictionless pulley serves to change the direction of a
force Have 2 types :
i. A force pulling a mass over a pulley In this situation, the tension, T is equal to the pulling
force, F even if the rope is slanting.ii. A pulley with 2 masses. The heavier mass will accelerate downwards while
the lighter one will accelerate upwards at the same rate.
The tension is not equal to the weight of either mass.
Example pulley system A 5 kg mass is used to accelerate a 3 kg block
along a table as shown in figure1. The friction between the table and the block is 10 N. Assuming that the pulley is smooth and the string is of negligible mass, find › The acceleration of the system› The tension in the string
