RESULTANTS
Force – Couple Systems = Reduction of a Force to an
Equivalent Force and Moment (Moving a Force to Another
Point)
The force acting on a body has two effects: the first one is the
tendency to push or pull the body in the direction of the force, and
the second one is to rotate the body about any fixed axis which does
not intersect nor is parallel to the line of the force. This dual effect
can more easily be represented by replacing the given force by an
equal parallel force and a couple to compensate for the change in
the moment of the force.
F
Let us consider for acting at point A in a rigid body. It is possible
to slide force along its line of action, but it is not possible to
directly move it to point B without changing the external effect on the
rigid body.
F
F
In order to do this, two equal and opposite forces and are added to
point B without introducing any net external effects on the body. It is
seen that, the original force at A and and the equal and opposite one at
B constitute the couple M=Fd, which is counterclockwise for this case.
F
F
Therefore, we have replaced the original force at A by the same
force acting at a different point B and a couple, without altering
the external effects of the original force on the body. Since is
a free vector, its location is of no concern. The combination of
the force and couple is referred to as a force-couple system.
M
By reversing this process, we can combine a given couple and a
force which lies in the plane of the couple (normal to the couple
vector) to produce a single, equivalent force. Force can be moved
to a point by constructing a moment equal in magnitude and
opposite in direction . The magnitude and direction of
remains the same, but its new line of action will be distance
away from point B.

1. A force F of magnitude 50 N is exerted on the automobile parking-
brake lever at the position x=250 mm. Replace the force by an
equivalent force-couple system at the pivot point O.
2. The device shown is part of an automobile seat-back-release
mechanism. The part is subjected to the 4 N force exerted at A and a
300 Nmm restoring moment exerted by a hidden torsional spring.
Determine the y-intercept of the line of action of the single equivalent
force.
Simplification of Force Systems – Resultants
If two force systems are creating the same external effect on the
rigid body they are exerted on, they are said to be “equivalent”.
The resultant of a force system is the simplest combination that
they can be reduced without altering the external effects they
produce on the body. For some systems the resultant will only

Coplanar Force Systems
If the resultant of all forces lying in a single plane
such as xy is , this resultant is calculated by the vector sum of these
forces.

The location of the line of action of the resultant force to an
arbitrary point (such as point O is the origin of the xy coordinate
system) can be determined by using the Varignon’s theorem. The
moment of about point O will be equal the sum of the couple
moments constructed by moving its components to point O.

3. The forces acting on the belts on a pulley system are equal with a magnitude of
800 N. The pulley is secured to the steel column by means of two bolts at A and B.
Replace the two forces with a force-couple system, in which the equivalent force
will be at the midpoint of the bolts. Then, determine the force each bolt will
sustain by distributing this force and couple to forces acting at points A and B.
4. Under nonuniform and slippery road conditions, the four forces shown are exerted
on the four drive wheels of the all-wheel-drive vehicle. Determine the resultant of
this system and the x- and y-intercepts of its line of action. Note that the front and
rear tracks are equal (i. e., ). CDAB
Three Dimensional Force Systems
The same principles can be enlarged to three dimensional force
systems. The resultant of forces acting on a body
can be obtained by moving them to a desired point. In this way, the
given force system will be converted to
1) Three dimensional, concurrent forces comprising the same
magnitudes and directions as the original forces,
2) Three dimensional couples.

The tension in cable AB is 450 N and the tension in cable CD is 270 N. Suppose
that you want to replace these two cables by a single cable EF so that the force
exerted on the wall at E is equivalent to the two forces exerted by cables AB and
CD on the walls at A and C. What is the tension in cable EF and what are the
coordinates of points E and F?

The direction cosines of robot arm AB are cos x=0.6, cos y (y <90°) and cos z=0’dır. For arm BC the direction cosines are, cos x=7/9, cos
y=4/9 and cos z=-4/9. A force of magnitude F=250 N and a couple of magnitude C=27 Nm along the axis BC are applied to the end C of arm BC. Determine the moment about line AD. Replace the force and couple acting on the robot assembly with an equivalent force-couple at point A.
* Line MN lies in a plane parallel to the horizontal plane * Line AD lies in the xz plane and makes a 37° angle with the x axis
As a special case, if the resultant couple is perpendicular to
the resultant force , these two vectors can further be simplified
to obtain a single resultant force . The force can be slided a
distance d to form a moment , which is equal in magnitude
and opposite in direction , so that they will cancel each other
out. The distance d will be equal to d=SM/R.

Wrench Resultants
When the resultant couple vector is parallel to the resultant
force , the resultant is called a “wrench”.
The wrench is the simplest form in which the resultant of a general
force system may be expressed.
By definition, a wrench is positive if the couple and force vectors
point in the same direction, and negative it they point in opposite
directions.
