Drawing and Labelling Free Body Diagrams

Whilst using the simulation in the previous activity you will have been introduced to the forces that act on a body. These are indicated by arrows of various sizes that are drawn from the body itself. The size/length of the arrow indicates the amount of force that is being exerted. These are called free body diagrams.

The interactive PowerPoint below will guide you through the steps of labelling/drawing free body diagrams.

Analysing Movement to Enhance Physical Performance

Welcome Year 8 Physical Education Students! As many of you will be aware, participating in Physical Education whilst online will be very different to when we are all in class together. However, this time will provide us with a unique opportunity think critically about how we can improve our application within Physical Education and the benefits that it can have on our engagement with sport; both personally and within our community. This lesson will focus on the content descriptor AC9HP8M03 from the Australian Curriculum: 'Demonstrate and explain how movement concepts related to efforts, space, time, objects and people can be manipulated to improve movement outcomes' (Australian Curriculum, 2023).
