Free-Body Diagram: These are the diagrams used to show the relative magnitude and direction of all external forces acting upon an object in a given situation. A free-body diagram is a special example of vector diagram.
Some common rules for making a free-body diagram:
- The size of the arrow in a free-body diagram reflects the magnitude of the force.
- The direction of the arrow shows the direction that the force is acting.
- Each force arrow in the diagram is labeled to indicate the exact type of force.
- It is generally customary in a free-body diagram to represent the object by a box and to draw the force arrow from the center of the box outward in the direction that the force is acting.
