Last Answer : According to principle of transmissibility of forces, the effect of a force upon a body is the same at every point in its line of action.

Description : The forces, which meet at one point, but their lines of action do not lie in a plane, are called?

Last Answer : The forces, which meet at one point, but their lines of action do not lie in a plane, are called non-coplanar concurrent forces.

Last Answer : The resolved part of the resultant of two forces inclined at an angle 9 in a given direction is equal to the algebraic sum of the resolved parts of the forces in the given direction.

Description : The algebraic sum of the resolved parts of a number of forces in a given direction is equal to the resolved part of their resultant in the same direction. This is as per the principle of

Last Answer : The algebraic sum of the resolved parts of a number of forces in a given direction is equal to the resolved part of their resultant in the same direction. This is as per the principle of resolution of forces.
