Force System

It is the group of two or much better more than two forces which is acting on a body.

Types of Force System :-

1. Parallel Force System
2. Concurrent Force System
3. Collinear Force System
4. Coplanar Force System
5. Non-Coplanar Force System

1. Parallel Force System :-

If the line of action of all forces are parallel to the another forces acting on a body is known as Parallel Force System.

Types of Parallel Force System :-

1. Like Parallel Force System
2. Unlike Parallel Force System

2. Concurrent Force System :-

If the line of action of all the forces in a system are passes or meet at a common point then that particular system is known as Concurrent Parallel Force System.

3. Collinear Force System :-

If the line of action of all the forces in a system are passes through a single point, then that system of forces is known as Collinear Force System.

Notes :-

• Every collinear forces system may be concurrent force system.
• Concurrent force system need not to be a collinear force system.
