2.9: FORCES IN EQUILIBRIUM
Forces in Equilibrium 	When an object is in equilibrium, the resultant force acting on it is zero. The object will either be 1. at rest 2. move with constant velocity.
RESULTANT FORCEA single force that represents the combined effect of two of more forces in magnitude and direction.
Examples( Label the forces acted on the objects)
Addition of Forces Resultant force, F = ____ + ____ 	Resultant force, F = ____ + ____
F4 ch2.9
STEP 1 Using ruler and protractor, draw the two forces F1 and F2 from a point.
STEP 2 Complete the parallelogram
STEP 3Draw the diagonal of the parallelogram. The diagonal represent the resultant force, F in magnitude and direction.
Resolution of Forces 	A force F can be resolved into components which are perpendicular to each other: (a) horizontal component , FX (b) vertical component, FY
Resolution of Forces Component of weight parallel to the plane 		= mg sin 慮 Component of weight normal to the plane 		= mg cos慮 	Fx= F cos慮 Fy= F sin 慮
