7mc moment. In this beam it has a triangular, and a rectangular distributed load that resolve. To
create single force and to solve a force of these two loadings into a single at point 0. First action
to take is to find the equivalent force and draw a free body diagram with the formula of

ƩFy and ƩM

X4g mins. equivalent resultant force and specific its location. With the formula of “ƩM” and determine the
magnitude of Fa and Fb that resultant force passes through point 0. Fʀ=FA+Fb and the direction
which is depend upon in the problem.

56HuQ First find the force of two and next is resultant force with the formula of ƩF=F1+F2. And it acts
the moment is equal to the resultant force times the distance where x is it gonna be to the left
today or to the right and when it is positive its going clockwise it has to be to.

The formula is Ma=Fʀ x d, where d= distance, Fʀ= resultant force

http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=qx6Rt3 7:38 mins March 4, 2018 The video shows on how the resultant force R is along the z-axis and the couple moment (Mo)
Wf-xo is in x-y plane. Since they are mutually perpendicular, the force couple system can be reduced
further to a single force by moving the point of application of R to point A so that its moment
about 0 equal Mo.

The magnitude of the resultant of the resultant R of the forces: formula is R=ƩF

The point of application (x,y) of the resultant R: formula is

X=Ʃ(FiXi) Y= Ʃ(Fiyi)
R R

keM moment acting A. and replace the loading by a single resultant force and specify its location on
the beam measured from point A.

where Fʀ= F1+F2 and Moment is Ma=F1+F2 and Ma=Fʀ x d.

Moment of a Force -Scalar 117 March 4, 2018 In this topic it implies about what happen when force applied. The tendency to
Formulation rotate is some times called a torque but most often it is called the moment of a
force or simply called the moment. The relation between the magnitude of the
moment is directly proportional to the magnitude of the moment but perpendicular
distance or moment arm d.

The formula of magnitude of Mo is,

Mo= Fd

Where d- is the moment arm or perpendicular distance from the axis at point O to
the line action of the force.

The direction is defined by its moment axis which is perpendicular to the plane that
contains the force F and its moment arm d and rule is depend on the natural curl of
the fingers of the right hand represent the moment while the right thumb of the
right is the direction sense of Mo.

In resultant moment is good for the two-dimensional problems where the forces lie
within the x-y axis plane. To solve the solution by finding the algebraic sum.

The formula is,

+(Mʀ)o =Ʃ Fd ; (Mʀ) = F₁d₁ - F₂d₂ + F₃d₃

Note: If the (Mʀ)o is the positive the direction is counterclockwise moment and if
it is a negative (Mʀ)o it will be clockwise moment in the direction.
Cross Product 121 March 4,2018 Cross product is the is refers to the two vectors which is multiplied with the other
vector.

The formula is written as

C= A x B ; read as “ C equals A cross B”

In magnitude the C is represent the product of the magnitude of A and B. the sin θ

between the tails is ( oº  θ  180º) . thus, C=AB sin θ.

In direction implies about what happen when force applied. The tendency to rotate
is some times called a torque but most often it is called the moment of a force or
simply called the moment. The relation between the magnitude of the moment is

Cross product is the is refers to the two vectors which is multiplied with the other

 The formula is written as

C= A x B ; read as “ C equals A cross B”

In magnitude the C is represent the product of the magnitude of A and B. the sin θ
between the vector C has a direction which is perpendicular to the plane and that
plane contain the vector A and vector B. In both direction and magnitude of the
vector be it is written as,

C= A x B = ( AB sin θ)uⅽ

Note: the scalar of AB sin θ defines the magnitude of C and the unit vector of uⅽ
is the direction of C.

Moment of a force - Vector 124 March 4, 2018 The moment of the force lie down at the point O or through O which is
Formulation perpendicular to the plane containing O and F. The moment of force in vector
formulation formula is written as,

Mo = r x F

Where r- represents a position vector directed from O to any point on the line of
action of F.

In magnitude the cross product is Mo= rF sin θ

Where the θ - is measured between the tails of r and F, but r must be consider that
sliding vector where θ is constructed. For the formula is written as,

Mo= rF sin θ = F (r sin θ) = Fd

In direction aspect and sense of Mo. By determining of a hand using right- hand
rule where applied to the cross product. In maintaining the correct sense of r x F

The principle of transmissibility is refers to the cross product operation of three

dimensions at point O where perpendicular distance. We can use any of the
position vector r that is measured from the point O, the formula is written as,

Mo= r₁ x F = r₂ x F = r₃ x F

Note: At any point F can be applied and create at same moment at point O, where F
consider as sliding vector this is called the principle of transmissibility of a force.

To establish the coordinate of x,y,z using the vector r and F with the use of
Cartesian vectors. The formula is written as,

i j k
 Mo = r x F = rx ry rz

Fx Fy Fz

Where,

rx ry rz which is represent the x, y, z, components of the position vector drawn

from point O to any on the line of action of the force.

Fx, Fy, Fz which is represent the x, y, z components of the force vector.
