11. State Newton’s laws of motion
1st law:
Every body continues to be in state or rest or of uniform motion unless it is
compelled by an external force to change that state.
2nd law:
The acceleration of the particle will be proportional to the force and will be in the
direction of the force. (F=ma)
3rd law: To every action there is equal and opposite reaction.

20. Differentiate between Coefficient of static and dynamic friction
Coefficient of static friction is the ratio of limiting friction force to the normal
component of the reaction of the contact surface.
Coefficient of dynamic friction is the ratio of kinetic friction force to the normal
component of the reaction of the contact surface.
26. Write the expressions for finding the centroid of a line and an area.
Line - x = ⎰xdl/L; Y = ydl/L; Area x = ⎰xda/A ; Y = ⎰yda/A

Perpendicular axis theorem states that the moment of inertia of a lamina about an axis
perpendicular to the lamina passing through its centroid is the sum of the moment of inertias of
the lamina about two mutually perpendicular axes passing through the centroid.
30. What are called principal axes and centroidal principal axes?
The axes about which the moment of inertia is maximum and minimum are known as
principal axes. When these two axes pass through the centroid of an area, it is known as
centroidal principal axes.

Translation: A rigid body is said to be in translation if the linear displacement of every point
in the rigid body is the same
Rotation about a fixed axis: If all the particles of the body move along circles centered on a
fixed axis.
General plane motion: combination of translation and rotation.
