Introduction
•Treatment of a body as a single particle is not always possible. In general, the size of the body and the specific points of application of the forces must be considered.

Introduction
•Most bodies in elementary mechanics are assumed to be rigid, i.e., the actual deformations are small and do not affect the conditions of equilibrium or motion of the body.
