For FYS, you should be able
to tell whether or not each of the following scenarios is:
1.
STATIC
(i.e., motionless with the sum of forces and torques in each direction equal
to zero)
2.
DYNAMIC (i.e.,
in motion -- with the sum of forces or torques in at least one direction not
equal to zero)
3.
UNKNOWN
until magnitudes are assigned to vectors, and forces & torques are summed
in each direction. You should however be
able to state exactly what conditions would result in a STATIC or DYNAMIC
scenario.
