For the complete definition of a force we must know (1) its .........................., (2) its point of application, and (3) its
.................................. These three quantities, which completely define the force, are called characteristics or
specifications.
The magnitude of a force is obtained by comparing it with certain standard, arbitrarily taken as a unit force. In
engineering the unit of force is usually taken as the......................., which represents the weight of a certain
platinum cylinder kept in the Tower of London. The magnitudes of forces are commonly measured by using
various kinds of .....................................
In statics we have considered rigid bodies that are .......................... In dynamics we shall consider rigid bodies
that are ........................... Dynamics is commonly divided into two branches called kinematics and kinetics. In
kinematics we are concerned only with the ............................ relationship of a given motion of a body and not at
all with the forces that cause the motion. In kinetics we are concerned with finding the kind of motion that a given
body or system of bodies will have under the action of a given force, or with what forces must be .........................
to produce a prescribed motion.
