A traffic light is hanging from a horizontal pole that is supported by two cables attached to a vertical pole. The weight of the traffic light and the pole act downward. Given that the system is in equilibrium (the traffic light and the pole remain stationary) , which forces should be included in the Free Body Diagram?
In a Free Body Diagram (FBD) for the traffic light system in equilibrium, we must include all forces acting on the object. The traffic light and horizontal pole are subject to gravitational force (weight) acting downward and tension forces from the supporting cables acting along the directions of the cables. There is no contact surface providing a normal force, so the FBD includes only gravity and tension forces.
