Draw a free body diagram of a person standing on a beach carrying a bag in their right hand

.

The free body diagram should include the forces listed below. Identify the reaction force for each and draw arrows depicting the action and reaction pairs on your diagram. You can draw separate diagrams for clarity. Remember that action and reaction forces always act on different bodies! So don’t forget to show the other body in the diagram.

 

  1. The force of weight of the person
  2. The force exerted by the sand on the person
  3. The force that your hand exerts on the bag
  4. The force that the bag exerts on the Earth

Attached is an example of work submitted by another student. Their work may be correct. I have no idea.
