This guide provides a comprehensive overview of free body diagrams, illustrating various force scenarios for students. Each drawing captures different situations, including a pool ball at rest and in motion, cars at constant speed, acceleration and deceleration, and the effects of forces on a man being lifted by a balloon. Key terms such as unbalanced force, friction force, normal force, applied force, tension, weight, lift, and equilibrium are included to enhance understanding. Perfect for students learning about forces in physics.

Free Body Diagrams Force Scenarios for Student Diagrams
Drawing One and Two • Draw the forces on a pool ball sitting at rest on a pool table. • Draw the forces on a pool ball as it is struck by a cue stick while sitting on the table.
Drawing Three, Four, and Five Draw the forces on: 3) A Car driving at a constant speed down the freeway. 4) A police car accelerating to chase a car. 5) A car decelerating when he sees the lights in his mirror.
Drawing Six and Seven Draw the forces on: 6) A man being pulled off the ground by an enormous helium filled balloon on a windless day. 7) A man being pulled off the ground by an enormous balloon with a strong wind blowing from behind.
Drawing 8 and 9 Draw the forces on: 8) An airplane accelerating forward during takeoff. 9) A plane moving forward and upward at a constant speed.
Drawings 10, 11, and 12 Draw the forces on: 10) A car being towed at a constant speed. 11) A tow truck accelerating while pulling a car 12) A tow truck coming to a stop while pulling a car.
Check for Understanding • Do you understand these terms now? • Force • Unbalanced Force • Friction Force (Ff) • Normal Force (FN) • Applied Force (FA) • Tension (FT) • Weight (Fg) • Lift (FL) • Equilibrium
