equilibrium of forces was investigated through the use of different weights attached to cords which were connected to a central ring‚ while pulleys supported them. This assembly facilitated the force band system to demonstrate that equilibrium will be attaining regardless of disturbances. However‚ due to errors in the experiment‚ the sum of the x and y component did equate to zero as predicted. The graphical solution of the experiment yield a polygon that is completed indicating that all the forces are in
