You are considering the horizontal forces that someone experiences while side shuffling from the left (as you are facing the shuffler), to the right, and back to the left (see below).
a. Draw a free body diagram of the external forces acting on a person in each these 4 phases: 1) on the body during the push off of the floor to the right, 2) on the body as weight is being accepted to the right, 3) on the body during the push off of the floor to the left, and 4 ) as weight is being accepted on the left.
b. Draw a single graph of the acceleration of the body experienced while performing the shuffle and label regions of the graph where the net forces are acting.
c. Explain why your FBDs and your graph are consistent.
