Let us consider a book placed in a table. To draw the FBD of the book, first isolate the book
completely and replace the constraint by suitable reactions

support at A
While drawing the FBD , inner details are not important; inner constraints are not considered
In the figure A is roller support, B is pin-joint

FBD example 2
While drawing the FBD , inner details are not important; just the outline of the vehicle is drawn
In this problem all the forces are parallel
Notice the reactions at wheels are 2A and 2B respectively recall there are two front and two
rear wheels

The structure is made of two connected bodies (CD and ABC), the fbd of both members must be
drawn
The moment is applied at point B and must be considered in the fbd

If a body is subjected to two forces, then both the forces must be
equal in magnitude, opposite in direction and collinear
