iz. # parallel to GB, and Q acting along OG. The two forces F acting at 0 balance each other and maybe removed. We are left with the single force P + Q acting along OG. To determine the position of G. The sides of the triangle OGA are parallel to P, F andtheir resultant, hence by the converse of… … Fia. 51. In this case P and Q are unlike parallel forces of whichQ is the greater. Suppose them to act at any points A andB on their lines of action. At A and £ apply equal andopposite forces F. The resultants of F and P and of F and Q will meet insome point 0 which is to the right of Q, since, Q…
