Scalars and VectorsA scalar is a quantity having magnitude, but no direction.
Having magnitude only a scalar may be positive or negative. but has no directional characteristics. Common scalar quantities are length, mass, temperature,
energy, volume, and density. A vector is a quantity having both magnitude and
direction. A vector may be positive or negative and has a specified direction in space. Common vector quantities are displacement, force, velocity, acceleration, stress, and momentum. A scalar quantity can he fully defined by a single parameter,
its magnitude, whereas a vector requires that both its magnitude and direction be specified.

ForcesTo the engineer, force is defined as an influence that
causes a body to deform or accelerate. For example:PushPullLift
When the forces acting on a body are unbalanced, the body undergoes an acceleration. For example:The propulsive force delivered to the wheels of an
automobile can exceed the frictional forces that tend to retard the automobile’s motion so the automobile accelerates
Similarly. the thrust and lift forces acting on an aircraft can exceed the weight and drag forces, thereby allowing the aircraft to accelerate vertically and horizontally.

Stabilizing a Communications Tower with Cables Tall slender structures often
incorporate cables to stabilize them. The cables, which are connected at
various points around the structure and along its length. are connected to concrete anchors buried deep in the ground.
Shown in Figure 4.16(a) is a typical communications tower that is stabilized with several cables On this particular tower each ground anchor facilitates two cables that are connected at a common point, as shown in Figure 4.16(b).
The upper and lower cables exert forces of 15 kN and 25 kN respectively. and their directions are 45 and 32 respectively, as measured from the ground (Figure 4.16(c)). What is the resultant force exerted by the cables on the ground anchor?

FREE-BODY DIAGRAMSA free-Body diagram is a diagram that shows all
external forces acting on the body. As the term implies, a free-body diagram shows only the body in question, being isolated or “free” from all other bodies
The body is conceptually removed from all: supportsconnections, and regions of contact with other bodies
All forces produced by these external influences are schematically represented on the free- body diagram.

Procedure for Constructing Free-Body DiagramsThe following procedure should be followed when
constructing free-body diagrams:1. Identify the body you wish to isolate and make a
simple drawing of it.2. Draw the appropriate force vectors at all locations of
supports, connections and contacts with other bodies
3. Draw a force vector for the weight of the body, unless the gravitational force is to he neglected in the analysis.
4. Label all forces that are known with a numerical value and those that are unknown with a letter.
5. Draw a coordinate system on. or near, the tree-body to establish directions of the forces

A body is in static or dynamic equilibrium if the vector sum of all external forces is zero. Consistent with this definition, the condition of equilibrium may be stated mathematically as:

StressThis mathematical definition of normal
stress is actually an average normal stress, because there may be a variation of stress
across the cross section of the bar. Stress variations are normally present only
near points where the external forces are applied however.
The stress equation may he used in the majority of stress calculations without regard to stress variations.
