Free body diagram of a block on a ramp without friction. Free body diagram last updated january 26 2020 block on a ramp and corresponding free body diagram of the block.

In this video i explain how to identify the forces acting on a mass that is moving down a ramp. A free body diagram is a representation of an object with all the forces that act on it. I also explain how to draw these forces on a free body diagram. In this case we have a block moving up a ramp so for our convenience we will use tilted coordinate axes with the x axis in the direction of motion uphill.

In physics and engineering a free body diagram force diagram 1 or fbd is a graphical illustration used to visualize the applied forces moments and resulting reactions on a body in a given condition. Once you develop this skill you will. The external environment other objects the floor on which the object sits etc as well as the forces that the object exerts on other objects are omitted in a free body diagram. After drawing the coordinate axes on the free body diagram of the block we proceed to find the components of the individual forces acting on the block.
