A sample from this course

One topic, as StudyPath teaches it.

Free body diagrams

Free body diagrams (FBDs) are the first step in analysing any mechanical system; they isolate a body and show all external forces and moments acting on it. Mastering FBDs is essential for the NUC CCMAS, NBTE, and NCCE exams because they underpin the application of Newton’s laws, equilibrium equations, and energy methods.
