Calculus III: Two Dimensional Vectors (Level 12 of 13)

The video tutorial covers static equilibrium, explaining that when an object is stationary, the sum of forces acting on it must be zero. It provides three examples: a swing problem, a hanging chain, and cable tension, demonstrating how to calculate forces and tensions in each scenario.
