Force Diagrams

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

Seeming incomplete, this slide show introduces physical science novices to the balancing of forces and drawing force diagrams. The first seven slides work well to meet this purpose. The remaining slides, however, turn viewers over to specific textbook pages for practice. You could change the references to match your own textbook, or display a few practice problems for your class to attempt. The final slide  can be ignored as it simply says "moments" at the top.
