- - - - Only way to determine a value for a force is to deal with it as an external force
  - - - Once you do this a few times, you realize that you do not need to work out geometry. b/c any component will involve sin or cos and you can just pick the one that works correctly in a certain limit
- - - - Since force is a vector, you must break forces down into components
        
        Remmeber each direction should equal zero
  - - - When rope is massless, then the tension is the same everywhere along the rope
    - - This force acts on an object that is in contact with a surface and the force is perpendicular to the surface
    - - Friction is the force parallel to a surface that a surface applies to an object
        
        Static friction deals with two objects at rest relative to each other
        
        In static case, we have F =< uN . Also, note that the friction force has a max value of F = uN .
    - - g = 9.8 m/s^2
