For a rigid slab in translation, show that the system of the effective forces consists of vectors ors (Δmi)a attached to the various particles of the slab, where a is the acceleration of the mass center G of the slab. Further show, by computing their sum and the sum of their moments about G, that the effective forces reduce to a single vector ma attached at G.
