For example, Fig. 155, where-one rotating piece both presses and rubs on another. Let the-normal pressure between them at A be i?2 = B2 ; it is a work-ing force for the body of mass M, but a resistance for M,hence the separate symbols for the numerically equal forces(action and reaction). Similarly, the friction at A is B3 = Bs; a resistance for M,a working-force for M. (In some cases, of course, frictionmay be a resistance for both bodies.) For a small motion, Adescribes the small arc AA about 0 in dealing with M, butfor M it describes the arc AA about O1, AA beingparallel to the surface of contact AD, while AB is perpen-. Fig. 156.
