What is a nail and pin joint?
pin joint is a type of joint containing a pin or hing in the support. in the pin joint there are two reaction component(axial force) act. the moment in occuring in this because of its rotation. thats why there is two equation of equalibrium. 1:all the forces in x-direction=0 2:all the forces in y-direction=0

What are the similarities and differences between coulomb's force and gravitational force?
similarities between these 2 force are thatboth of these forces are directly proportional to the product of masses and inversely proportional to the square of distance between the two massesand the differences are that coulombsforce could be repulsive or attractive but gravitational force is only attartive one and gravitational constant is smaller than electric constant
