Free body diagrams can feel a bit tricky for Year 10 students at first. They need you to understand the different forces acting on an object.

Challenges:

• Figuring out all the forces can be hard and might lead to misunderstandings.
• Misreading the arrows (vectors) can cause you to come to the wrong conclusions.

Solutions:

• Take it step by step: Look at one force at a time.
• Label everything clearly: Show directions and sizes of the forces.

With some practice, free body diagrams can really help make understanding complex forces easier. They can also improve your grasp of basic science ideas.
