Two forces, 3 newtons (N) and 2 N, act to the right. Calculate the resultant force. When two forces that act in opposite directions it is often easiest to subtract the magnitude of the smaller ...

Multiple forces act on an object at the same time. The size and direction of these forces determines the movement of the object. Show the forces acting on an object in a free body diagram.

The application of Newton's Laws to engineering problems in statics. The free-body diagram method is emphasized. Topics include vector algebra, force, moment of force, couples, static equilibrium of ...

it has to interface with the wearer’s body, and that can lead to problems. Measuring and mapping the pressure on the residual limb is the business of this flexible force-sensing matrix.
