<startouttext />
A mass is sliding down the indicated incline with a constant velocity. Construct the free body diagram, making sure the forces are approximately proportionally correct. Leave unused vectors unattached.<br />
<i>You can use the red-colored vector sum tool to help you construct your diagram; check the boxes for the vectors you want included in the sum. The tool is just there to help you, its settings are not graded.</i>
