Question: Anna is on a wagon and Amy is pulling down and to the right with a force of 1 0 0 N at an angle

Anna is on a wagon and Amy is pulling down and to the right with a force of 100N at an angle of 25 degrees below the horizontal. Anna and the wagon have a mass of 55kg and they are moving at a constant speed.
(a) Draw the force diagram of Anna and the wagon, 
(b) Create a table of force components for Anna and the wagon, 
(c) Calculate the normal force on Anna and the wagon, 
(d) Calculate the magnitude of friction force on Anna and the wagon,
 (e) Calculate the coefficient of friction.
 (F) Amy now pulls up with 100N at an angle of 25 degree instead -
(1) calculate the normal force,
 (2) Calculate the magnitude of friction on Anna and the wagon using the coefficient value you found earlier, 
(3) Calculate the acceleration of Anna and the wagon.
