Forces Not Shown: Always remember to include all forces acting on an object. About 25% of students forget to add important forces.
Wrong Direction: Make sure the arrows point the right way. About 40% of diagrams have arrows pointing incorrectly.
Forgetting Gravity: Not showing gravity is a common mistake. This happens in up to 30% of cases.
Labeling Forces: Make sure to label each force clearly (like using for gravity). Around 20% of diagrams don’t have any labels.
Size of Arrows: Show forces with arrows that are the right size. When arrows are different sizes, it can confuse things, and this affects about 15% of students' diagrams.
