A free body diagram is a drawing of an object that is used to show all of the forces acting on the body. In mechanics, free body diagrams are extremely helpful because they isolate the object and A Mathematical Model[edit] What are the mathematical equations that allow us to model this topic. For example dp⃗ dtsystem=F⃗ net where p is the momentum of the system and F is the net force from the surroundings.
