Read each question carefully and follow the instructions. Draw clear and labeled free body diagrams for each scenario where indicated. Ensure all forces are correctly identified and represented by arrows.
1. A free body diagram is a visual representation of all the acting on an object.
2. The object itself is typically represented as a in a free body diagram.
3. The length of an arrow in a free body diagram indicates the of the force.
1. Which of the following forces always acts downwards towards the center of the Earth?
Normal Force
Tension
Gravitational Force (Weight)
Applied Force
2. Which force opposes the motion of an object in contact with a surface?
Normal Force
Friction
Air Resistance
Tension
