Equilibrium of Rigid Bodies
When objects are supported by some supporting mechanisms, the supporting mechanism exerts a force or couple moment on the object which tries to restrict the motion of the object.
Supports and Their Reactions in a Plane • When objects are supported by some supporting mechanisms, the supporting mechanism exerts a force or couple moment on the object which tries to restrict the motion of the object. • These forces or couple moments which oppose or restrict the motion by objects are called support reactions. • Different types of supports and their corresponding reactions are given in Table 4.3.1. Table 4.3.1 Types of supports and corresponding reactions Example 4.3.1 Draw FBD of objects shown in Fig. 4.3.1 i) to vii). Neglect friction.
