'Recognizing the need is the primary condition for design.'
Learning Aims
1: Learn how the different types of internal forces act on objects
2: Identify where different types of external force apply to everyday objects
3: Apply triangualltion of a structure to support a load.
The image below shows the effects of having your centre of gravity misaligned.
Q: What effect on the tower does having an offset centre of gravity?
A: Strengthens the tower
A: Weakens the tower
Looking at the diagram below when compressive force is exerted upon the two shapes which of the two shapes comes off as stronger?
Why?
