In this chapter and in Chapters 17 and 18, we will be
concerned with the kinetics of rigid bodies, i.e., relations
between the forces acting on a rigid body, the shape and mass
of the body, and the motion produced.
Our approach will be to consider rigid bodies as made of
large numbers of particles and to use the results of Chapter
14 for the motion of systems of particles. Specifically,
G G
F ma M H
and
Results of this chapter will be restricted to:
plane motion of rigid bodies, and
rigid bodies consisting of plane slabs or bodies which
are symmetrical with respect to the reference plane.

Consider a rigid body acted upon
by several external forces.
Assume that the body is made of
a large number of particles.

Motion of a rigid body in plane motion is
completely defined by the resultant and moment
resultant about G of the external forces.
The external forces and the collective effective
forces of the slab particles are equipollent (reduce
to the same resultant and moment resultant) and
equivalent (have the same effect on the body).
The most general motion of a rigid body that is
symmetrical with respect to the reference plane
can be replaced by the sum of a translation and a
centroidal rotation.
d’Alembert’s Principle : The external forces
acting on a rigid body are equivalent to the
effective forces of the various particles forming
the body.

The forces act at different points on
a rigid body but but have the same
magnitude, direction, and line of action.
and
The forces produce the same moment about
any point and are therefore, equipollent
external forces.
This proves the principle of transmissibility
whereas it was previously stated as an axiom.
