## Problem 5: Free Body Diagram of a Book on a Horizontal Tabletop (11%)

### Problem Statement:
A book is resting on a horizontal tabletop. The book is stationary, and there are no external forces applied to the book. If necessary, use \( F_s \) for the force of static friction and \( F_k \) as the force of kinetic friction.

### Diagram Description:
- The diagram shows a book of mass \( m \) on a horizontal table.
- It includes the coefficients of static friction (\( \mu_s \)) and kinetic friction (\( \mu_k \)) between the table and the book.
- There is an \( x, y \) coordinate system for reference.

### Instructions:
Please use the interactive area below to draw the Free Body Diagram for the book.

### Interactive Area:
The interactive area allows you to add forces on the book as follows:

1. **Coordinate System**: Located on the interactive diagram with \( x \)-axis and \( y \)-axis.
2. **Options**: 
   - **Add Force**: You can select and add forces acting on the book.
   - **Reset All**: Clears all the forces added to the diagram.

### Grading Summary:
- **Deductions**: Points deducted for incorrect submissions.
- **Potential**: Maximum points available for this problem.
- **Submissions**: 
  - You have a set number of attempts remaining.
  - 2% per attempt deduction applies.
  - You can view detailed submissions through the provided detailed view link.

**Interactive Diagram Example**:
- The diagram below shows a visual representation of the book on a tabletop with annotated forces and coefficients of friction.

### Completing the Interactive Diagram:
To complete the free body diagram:
1. **Identify the Forces**:
   - **Gravity (Weight)**: Acting downwards, \( F_g = mg \).
   - **Normal Force**: Perpendicular to the surface, acting upwards, balancing gravity.
   - **Friction Force**: If needed, depending on the problem requirements.
   
2. **Add Forces**:
   - Use the "Add Force" button to place arrows representing these forces in the correct direction.

This exercise helps students understand the basic principles of static equilibrium and friction in a practical scenario.
