Tommy is working on a physics problem and asks his friend Sarah to check his work. He is to draw a free-body diagram for a man walking to the left and comes up with the following: He reasons, “The man is walking to the left, so the force of friction is acting in the opposite direction. The normal force should be opposite and equal to that of the gravitational force.” Is Tommy correct with his diagram and reasoning? If so, explain. If not, what mistake did he make?
