In the box provided, draw a labeled 'free body diagram" (FBD) showing all the forces acting on the trunk. All the forces in the diagram should have descriptive labels giving the name of the force, for example, "T or "F" for the tension. Do not label the weight as "g" - this is the acceleration due to gravity and is not a force. Label the weight as "F", "W", or "Mg". Newton's 3rd law says that all forces come in action-reaction pairs, i.e., if object A exerts a force on B, object B must exert the same force on A but in the opposite direction. Note that action-reaction pairs always must be the same type of force. b. What is the reaction force corresponding to the ramp pushing into the trunk? What type of force is it?
