**Purpose**

To practice with drawing Free-Body Diagrams (FBDs) and working with net force; to learn to work with inclined planes and frictional forces.

**Introduction**

Newton's Laws assert that if a particle is in equilibrium, then the total force on it must vanish, i.e., the vector sum of the applied forces must be equal to zero, \(\sum_i \vec{F}_i = 0\). If the total force is not zero, the particle is not in equilibrium, and then \(\sum_i \vec{F}_i = \vec{ma}\).

The purpose of this experiment is to work with a system which can be in equilibrium, or not in equilibrium (what is the main difference and how can you tell?). We will also practice drawing FBD and working with friction.

**Prelab**

1. Below is a schematic of an inclined plane problem. In the space provided, draw a free-body diagram and label all the forces acting on the box. How can you tell if this box is in equilibrium or not?

   *The diagram shows a box on an inclined plane supported by a structure.*

2. Is there a difference between drawing an FBD for a static case vs. kinetic case? Why or why not?

Expert Solution
Step 1

Free Body diagram (FBDs) are very useful to solve many mechanical problems such as inclined planes, pully systems.

This problem can be solved by resolving force component.iFx = max   , mgsin(θ) - μkN = max  ,along the X-axis.iFy = may  ,  N-mgcos(θ) = 0  ,  along the Y-axis Lets resolve the forces along the X-axis & y-axis.

At equillibium ax = 0 (no motion)
