In physics and engineering, a free body diagram (FBD; also called a force diagram) [1] is a graphical illustration used to visualize the applied forces, moments, and resulting reactions on a free body in a given condition. It depicts a body or connected bodies with all the applied forces and moments, and reactions, which act on the body(ies).
A simple machine uses a single applied force to do work against a single load force. Ignoring friction losses, the work done on the load is equal to the work done by the applied force. The machine can increase the amount of the output force, at the cost of a proportional decrease in the distance moved by the load.

F 2. gravitational force by object on earth (upward) F 3. force by support on object (upward) F 4. force by object on support (downward) Forces F 1 and F 2 are equal, due to Newton's third law; the same is true for forces F 3 and F 4. Forces F 1 and F 3 are equal if and only if the object is in equilibrium, and no other forces are applied ...
Subscript 0 denotes the original dimensions of the sample. The SI derived unit for stress is newtons per square metre, or pascals (1 pascal = 1 Pa = 1 N/m 2), and strain is unitless. The stress–strain curve for this material is plotted by elongating the sample and recording the stress variation with strain until the sample fractures. By ...

The forces acting on the tip are such that the spring (cantilever) remains soft but responds to the applied force, with a detectable resonant frequency, f o. In Hooke's law, k is the spring constant of the cantilever and m o is defined as the mass acting on the cantilever: the mass of the cantilever itself and the mass of the tip.
