This document discusses key concepts in statics of rigid bodies including vectors, resultants, adding vectors numerically, equilibrium, moment, and friction. Vectors represent physical quantities with magnitude and direction. Resultants are found by adding vectors. Equilibrium occurs when all points in a system have zero acceleration and no movement. Moment and friction are also important concepts in statics of rigid bodies.

REVIEW
STATICS OF RIGID BODY
VECTOR • Mathematical representation of a physical quantity ot its magnitude and direction RESULTANT • Result of adding of two or more vectors. ADDING VECTORS NUMERICALLY • If magnitudes and theta is given, use the complex mode of calculator. STATICS OF RIGID BODY EQUILIBRIUM • WHEN ALL POINTS IN THE SYSTEM HAS AN ACCELERATION OF ZERO. • WHEN THE SYSTEM HAS NO MOVEMENT. MOMENT T=180 N FRICTION Coefficient of friction
