* Figure P4.7 shows an unlabeled force diagram for a hockey puck. The length of the sides of the square grid corresponds to a force magnitude of 1 N. Draw a similar square grid on paper and then draw the vector for the force that should be exerted on the puck so that the puck. (a) moves with constant speed, (b) moves with constant acceleration toward the north, (c) moves with constant acceleration toward the west, and (d) moves with constant acceleration toward the east.

Instructions
Use g = 10 m/s2
Always answer in standard units (SI units). Unless otherwise instructed.
Answer to 2 decimal places. Unless otherwise instructed.
A)
One way to determine the coefficients of friction (μs and μk) between
two surfaces is to use an incline plane. Consider a block of mass
m = 2.0kg initially at rest at the top of the ramp. The angle θ
is increased slowly. The object starts to slide down the ramp when
the angle is 40 degree. Determine the value of μs.
B)
From the above problem, the block slides down the slope with an incline angle of 40 degree, the angle is kept constant. The block starts from rest and travels along the ramp by distance d = 2.0 m in time t = 1.5 s.
Determine the value of μk
Please refer to the values of the figure in the table.
