Rigid body equilibrium set, forces and torques
EQ175

Intended for experimental study, physics and engineering laboratory work, conducting physics experiments on: Statics. Verifying the conditions of translational and rotational equilibrium. Recalling what is meant by a rigid body. The extended rigid body. The center of mass of an extended rigid body. The pure translational motion of a rigid body. The pure rotational motion of a rigid body. What is meant by torque (or couple, or moment of a force) in relation to the center of moments. The direction of torque. The sense of torque, right-hand rule. Measuring weights. The force diagram of a rigid body. Translational equilibrium, etc.

Physics, mechanics of solids, statics of extended bodies.
