There are many practical applications. here's one: On my farm, I often need to uproot trees and stumps. If I hook a chain to my tractor and a tree/stump and try to drive away, the force holding the tree in place overcomes the force holding my tractor tires to the ground, and the tires slip. So I hook the chain to the tree I want to remove, and (tautly) to a larger one nearby instead of to my tractor. I then hook a second chain to the middle of that chain, and the other end of the second chain to the tractor. I then drive the tractor away perpendicularly to the first chain. I am in essence adding (a portion of) the force holding the larger tree in place, to the force being applied to the tree I want to yank free. Put another way, I am creating more pulling force on the stump to be yanked, with the same motive force limit on the tractor (the point at which the tractor slips.) Do NOT try this without experience, because of the risk of chain snapping and taking your fool head off. I haven't bothered to describe my safety procedures ( among other things I tie the chain off at several crucial points so that if it snaps it can't reach me or my equipment) because those procedures aren't pertinent to the question.

What is Converse polygon law of forces?
Yes
What are the limitations of parallelogram law of forces?
it is applicable to two forces only
What is polygon law of vector addition?
THE POLYGON LAW states that if (n-1) similar vectors acting at a point in a plane can be represented both in magnitude and direction by the (n-1) consecutive sides of a n-sided polygon then the n-th side will represent the resultant vector in the reverse order.
Why Lami's theorem cannot be used for 4 concurrent forces?
Because, this theorem comes from the law of sines which is completely a triangle law and the law of sines can not be applied on other polygons.

What is Converse polygon law of forces?
Yes
What is the polygon law of forces?
" If a number of forces acting at a point be represented in magnitude ad direction by the sides of a polygon in order, then the resultant of all these forces may be represented in magnitude and direction by the closing side of the polygon taken in opposite order "
Define triangle law of forces and polygon law of forces?
Three forces in equilibrium can be represented in magnitude and direction by the three sides of a triangle taken in order. If a number of forces acting simultaneously on a particle be represented in magnitude and direction by the sides of a polygon taken in order, their resultant may be represented in magnitude and direction by the closing side of the polygon taken in opposite order.
What is the Definition of polygon law?
All the concurrent forces acting at a point can be represented by a polygon's sides closing with the resultant force equal in magnitude and opposite in direction.
Statement of polygon law of forces?
if several COPLANAR FORCES are acting at a point simultaneously such that each one of them can be represented in direction and magnitude by a side of a polygon, taken in order, then the resultant is given by the closing side in the reverse order
Electric force and its application?
an attraction or repulsion between electrically charged that opperates according to the law of electric forces charges and Coulomb's law of electric force
What is practical application of charle's law?
Charle's laws describe how gases tend to expand when they are heated. When pressure on a sample of dry gas is held constant, the Kelvin temperature and the volume will be directly related. Just one real world application is the fact that human lung capacity is reduced in colder temperatures.
What is the Application of statistic in law?

What has the author John S Batanides written?
John S. Batanides has written: 'Practical application of bookkeeping for a law firm' -- subject(s): Accounting, Lawyers, Problems, exercises
Where can one find a practical law company?
You can find a practical law company at the US section of the Practical Law website. Once on the website, click on "PLC Law Firm" in the top navigation menu to bring up the company firm page.
What is a practical application?
It means that a something, like a program or algorithm, can be used to solve a real world problem.This is opposed to for example algorithms that may be academically interesting or have interesting mathematical properties, but nobody knows of anything it can be actually used for.
What is the application of the law of inertia and motion of law of inertia?
