Q. Suppose that a structure of arbitrary complexity has a number of forces applied to it (at various points) and yet is in static equilibrium. The principle of virtual work allows one to write an equation that relates the applied forces. To find this relationship, you should imagine (hence the term "virtual" work) that structure is disturbed slightly from its equilibrium position, and then calculate the ratio of resulting displacements at the points where the forces are applied.
We show this principle by considering the two downward forces, and, applied to the ends of a massless lever (see the figure). Initially, the lever is in static equilibrium. Imagine that the lever starts in the horizontal position, shown in black, and then tilts infinitesimally to the position shown in blue. Under this infinitesimal rotation, the left end of the lever moves a distance, while the right end moves a distance.
The net work done by the forces on the lever in this process is zero. (This is because equilibrium can also be defined as an energy extremum of the system. Therefore.)
Find an expression for the force using arguments based on work (do not use a torque argument).State F2 in terms of f1, h1, and h2

A Norwich MCE student is involved in a crucial out of class experiment. He is in his dorm room 34 feet above an historic rock wall. Describe the final result and state any assumptions that you need to make. Would the final result be any different o..
Calculate the period T and the tension in the string F as a function of the angle. Compute the moment of inertia of this system for an axis that passes through the combined center of mass and is perpendicular to the plane of the rings.
The wheel of the car has a radius of 0.340 m. The engine of the car applies a torque of 282 N•m to this wheel, that does not slip against the road surface. Since the wheel does not slip, the road must be applying the force of static friction to the w..
