Parallelogram Law

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.

Resultant Force If two or more forces P, Q, S,… act upon a rigid body and if a single force, R, can be found whose effect upon the body is the same as that of the forces P, Q, S, … this single force R is called the resultant of the other forces. Resultant of forces acting in the same direction (same straight line) is equal to their sum.

Magnitude and Direction of the Resultant of Two Forces Let OA and OB represent the forces P and Q acting at a point O and inclined to each other at an angle a then the resultant R and direction ‘q’ (shown in figure) will be given by R = √P2+Q2+2PQcosα and  tan θ = Qsinα/P+Qcosα

Cont., Case (i) If P = Q, then tanq = tan (α/2) => θ = α/2 If the forces act at right angles, so that  α = 90°, we have R = √P2+Q2 and tanθ = Q/P

Solved Example 1:  The resultant of two forces P and Q is R. If Q is doubled, R is doubled and when Q is reversed, R is again doubled, show that P : Q :R ::√2: √3:√2

Solution  Let a be the angle between the forces P and Q. Now from the given conditions, we have R2 + P2 + Q2 + 2PQ cos α …(1) and (2R)2 + P2 + (2Q)2 + 2P(2Q)cos α 4R2 = P2 + 4Q2 + 4PQ cosα …(2) and (2R)2 = P2 + (–Q)2 + 2P (–Q) cosα => 4R2 = P2+Q2 - 2PQ cosα …(3)

Cont., Adding (1) and (3), we get 2P2 + 2Q2 – 5R2 = 0 …(4) Eliminating a from (2) and (3), we get P2 + 2Q2 – 4R2 = 0 …(5) From (4) and (5), we have P2/–8+10 = Q2/–5+8 = R2/4–2 =>P2/2 = Q2/3 = R2/2 => P:Q:R::√2: √3: √2

The End ….. Thank You ……
