4. INTRODUCTION : -
DEFINITION : -
Coplanar Concurrent Forces :-
When the acting forces line of action lies in a same
plane and meeting at a point to each other, said to
be Coplanar Concurrent Forces.
5. EQUILIBRIUM CONDITIONS : -
If a system of forces acting on a body, keeps the body in a
state of rest or in a state of uniform motion, then the system
of forces is said to be in equilibrium.
Alternatively, we can say that the resultant force is zero, the
system of forces will be in equilibrium.
6. 1) The Coplanar Concurrent Forece is said to be in equilibrium
condition if it satisfies following conditions :-
2) Algebraic sum of components of all the forces of the system,
along two mutually perpendicular directions, is ZERO.
7. RESULTANT OF COPLANAR CONCURRENT FORCES
SYSTEM : -
A resultant force is the
single force and associated torque
obtained by combining a system
of forces and torques acting on a
rigid body.
The defining feature of a resultant
force is that it has the same effect
on the rigid body as the other
original system of forces.

9. PARALLELOGRAM LAW OF FORCES : -
If two forces, acting at a point, are
represented in magnitude and
direction by the two sides of a
parallelogram drawn from one of its
angular points, their resultant is
represented both in magnitude and
direction by the diagonal of the
parallelogram passing through that
angular point.
10. RESOLUTION OF FORCES : -
The process of splitting up the given force in two or more
components, in particular direction, without changing effect
on the body is called resolution of a force.
Generally a given force is split up in two manually
perpendicular force components,
1. Horizontal components ( x-components )
2. Vertical components ( y-components ).
12. TRIANGLE LAW OF FORCES : -
If two forces acting on a body, it can represented by two
adjacent sides of triangle with magnitude and directions and
resultant can be given by other side of triangle; which is the
statement of law of triangle.
Assume that,
we have a pair of forces acting on a point than Triangle
law of forces can be applied as,
13. For image,
Resultant can be given by,
R = 𝑃2 + 𝑄2 − 2𝑃𝑄𝑐𝑜𝑠𝛽.
The direction of the resultant can
be given by,
= 𝑠𝑖𝑛−1
(
𝑄
𝑅
sin 𝛽 ).
14. Graphically,
Triangle Law of Forces can be represented by taking two
forces at two adjacent sides of triangle, which are acting
on a body or particle and the resultant force can be
represented by the other side of the triangle.
The angle can be also obtained from figure by using
specific instrument.
15. POLYGON LAW OF FORCES : -
If a number of forces acting
at a point be represented in
magnitude and direction by
the sides of polygon taken in
order, then the resultant of all
these forces may be
represented in magnitude
and direction by the closing
side of polygon taken in
opposite order.
16. Graphically ,
It can be represented by
making a polygon as
shown
as shown in figure.
17. GRAPHICAL METHOD : -
Resultant of Coplanar Concurrent Forces can be graphically
represented by using Space diagram and Vector diagram.
Space Diagram : - If a force acting in a system are
represented by direction in the form of diagram by denoting
every force with specific character , the diagram is known as
space diagram.
Vector Diagram : - A space diagram of coplanar concurrent
forces with magnitude and direction of all forces, the diagram
is known as vector diagram.
19. LAMI’S THEORM : -
If three coplanar forces acting at
a point be in equilibrium , then
each force is proportional to the
sine of angle between other two
sides.
Applying Lami’s theorm on given
figure, we have;

sin 𝛼
