 Free-body diagrams are one of the most useful tools in mechanics. They catalog all the forces acting on an object, and provide you with the necessary representation to make use of the [[183_notes:momentum_principle|Momentum Principle]] (i.e., to find the direction of the net force acting on the object). In these notes, you will read how to construct a free-body diagram and how it can help you reason about the direction of the net force on an object. Free-body diagrams are one of the most useful tools in mechanics.
