Lesson details
Lesson outcome
I can draw and interpret free body force diagrams to describe the resultant force on an object and resolve a force into perpendicular components.
Show transcript
A free body diagram shows all of the forces acting on a single object
The resultant of two forces can be determined by adding individual forces on a vector diagram
The resultant of two perpendicular forces is in a different direction from either of these forces
A single force can be resolved into two components acting at right angles to each other
The two component forces together have the same effect as the single force
