HW DUE MONDAY!!! FREE BODY DIAGRAMs

Practice

Apply the method described in the paragraph above to construct free-body diagrams for the various situations described below. Answers are shown and explained at the bottom of this page.

1. A book is at rest on a tabletop. Diagram the forces acting on the book. See answer.
    
2. A gymnast holding onto a bar, is suspended motionless in mid-air. The bar is supported by two ropes that attach to the ceiling. Diagram the forces acting on the combination of gymnast and bar. 
3. An egg is free-falling from a nest in a tree. Neglect air resistance. Diagram the forces acting on the egg as it is falling.
    
4. A flying squirrel is gliding (no wing flaps) from a tree to the ground at constant velocity. Consider air resistance. Diagram the forces acting on the squirrel.
    
5. A rightward force is applied to a book in order to move it across a desk with a rightward acceleration. Consider frictional forces. Neglect air resistance. Diagram the forces acting on the book.
    
6. A rightward force is applied to a book in order to move it across a desk at constant velocity. Consider frictional forces. Neglect air resistance. Diagram the forces acting on the book. 
7. A college student rests a backpack upon his shoulder. The pack is suspended motionless by one strap from one shoulder. Diagram the vertical forces acting on the backpack.
    
8. A skydiver is descending with a constant velocity. Consider air resistance. Diagram the forces acting upon the skydiver.
    
9. A force is applied to the right to drag a sled across loosely packed snow with a rightward acceleration. Neglect air resistance. Diagram the forces acting upon the sled.
    
10. A football is moving upwards towards its peak after having been booted by the punter. Neglect air resistance. Diagram the forces acting upon the football as it rises upward towards its peak.
     
11. A car is coasting to the right and slowing down. Neglect air resistance. Diagram the forces acting upon the car.
