For all situations, assume
- acceleration is constant
- the object begins at the origin
- ‘north’ and ‘east’ are positive directions and drawn to the right.

h. Interaction Diagram
i. Force diagram
j. Summed forces in x- and y-direction
1. A 370 g cubic blue jay is being pulled upwards by a rope, but the blue jay does not move from the ground.
2. A 892 g cubic goose is pushed North along a dirt path by a black and white cat. The goose is moving slowly North and speeding up.
3. A 425 g cubic loon is moving upwards while being lifted by a rope. The loon is moving slowly and slowing down.  
4. A 210 g cubic swan is sliding along a dirt path. It is moving super fast east.
