Drawing Free-Body Diagrams
![](http://www.physicsclassroom.com/Class/newtlaws/u2l2c1.gif)
The motion of objects is determined by the relative size and the direction of the forces that act upon it. Free-body diagrams showing these forces, their direction, and their relative magnitude are often used to depict such information. In this Lesson, The Physics Classroom discusses the details of constructing free-body diagrams. Several examples are discussed.
