Basically Engineering Mechanics is the one of the most basic subjects that is required to study mechanical engineering from second year onwards. The subject will expose you to concepts like friction, kinetics, kinematics, resolving forces, trusses etc which forms the crux of design sciences. All these concepts are required to study subjects like Strength of Materials, Theory of Machines I,II , Machine Design, FEA, Mechanical Vibration etc.

23.  The principle of transmissibility of forces states that, when a force acts upon
a body, its effect is
1. different at different points on its line of action
2. maximum, if it acts at the centre of gravity of the body
3. minimum, if it acts at the centre of gravity of the body
4. same at every point on its line of action
 The point, through which the whole weight of the body acts, irrespective of
itsposition, is known as
1. moment of inertia
2. centre of mass
3. centre of percussion
4. centre of gravity 23
