SCALARS AND VECTORS
All physical quantities in engineering mechanics are
measured using either scalars or vectors.
SCALAR A scalar is any positive or negative physical
quantity that can be completely specified by its
magnitude. Examples of scalar quantities are length,
mass, time, density, volume, temperature, energy, area,
speed.

VECTOR
A vector is any physical quantity that requires both a magnitude and a
direction for its complete description. Examples of vectors encountered
in statics are force, position, and moment. A vector is shown graphically
by an arrow. The length of the arrow represents the magnitude of the
vector, and the angle q between the vector and a fixed axis defines the
direction of its line of action. The head or tip of the arrow indicates the
sense of direction of the vector

TYPES OF VECTORS
Physical quantities that are vectors fall into one of the three classifications as
free, sliding or fixed.
A free vector is one whose action is not confined to or associated with a
unique line in space. For example if a body is in translational motion, velocity
of any point in the body may be taken as a vector and this vector will describe
equally well the velocity of every point in the body. Hence, we may represent
the velocity of such a body by a free vector.
In statics, couple moment is a free vector.

A sliding vector has a unique line of action in space but not a unique point
of application. When we deal with the external action of a force on a rigid
body, the force may be applied at any point along its line of action without
changing its effect on the body as a whole and thus, it is a sliding vector.
![Page 5: SCALARS AND VECTORS - DEUkisi.deu.edu.tr/.../3_Scalars_and_Vectors_2019B(1).pdfSCALARS AND VECTORS All physical quantities in engineering mechanics are measured using either scalars](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022021616/5e680986f4b6dc624f6f3e03/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
A fixed vector is one for which a unique point of application is
specified. The action of a force on a deformable body must be
specified by a fixed vector. In this instance the forces and
deformations within the body depend on the point of application of
the force, as well as on its magnitude and line of action.

Principle of Transmissibility (TaΕΔ±nabilirlik Δ°lkesi)
The external effect of a force on a rigid body will remain
unchanged if the force is moved to act on its line of action.

Equality and Equivalence of Vectors
Two vectors are equal if they have the same dimensions, magnitudes and directions.
Two vectors are equivalent in a certain capacity if each produces the very same effect
in this capacity.

Vector Addition of Forces
Experimental evidence has shown that a force is a vectorquantity since it has a specified magnitude, direction, and senseand it adds according to the parallelogram law. Two commonproblems in statics involve either finding the resultant force,knowing its components, or resolving a known force into twocomponents.
Finding the Components of a Force.
Finding a Resultant Force.

The relationship between a force and its vector components must
not be confused with the relationship between a force and its
perpendicular (orthogonal) projections onto the same axes.
For example, the perpendicular projections of force onto axes a
and b are and , which are parallel to the vector components of
and .

It is seen that the components of a vector are not necessarily equal to
the projections of the vector onto the same axes. The components and
projections of are equal only when the axes a and b are
perpendicular.

CARTESIAN COORDINATES Cartesian Coordinate System is composed
of 90Β° (orthogonal) axes. It consists of x and y axes in two dimensional
(planar) case, x, y and z axes in three dimensional (spatial) case. x-y axes are
generally taken within the plane of the paper, their positive directions can be
selected arbitrarily; the positive direction of the z axes must be determined in
accordance with the right hand rule.

The angles, the line of action of a force makes with the x, y and z axes are named
as direction angles. (In this case, direction angles are qx, qy and qz)
The cosines of these angles are called direction cosines. (Direction cosines are
cos qx, cos qy and cos qz)

Cross (Vector) Product: The multiplication of two vectors in cross product results
in a vector. This multiplication vector is normal to the plane containing the other two
vectors. Its direction is determined by the right hand rule. Its magnitude equals the
area of the parallelogram that the vectors span. The order of multiplication is
important.
