Please plot the FBDs that allow you to find the weight of block D to keep the whole system in equilibrium. The coefficient of static friction for all surfaces of contact is 0.3. Please label clearly all tensional forces and the needed angles.

Note: only plot FBDs, no need to solve.

### Pulley System with Inclined Plane

#### Description

The diagram depicts a classic physics problem featuring a pulley system combined with an inclined plane. Here is a detailed explanation of the components and the setup:

1. **Inclined Plane**:
   - The inclined plane is represented by a straight line sloping upwards from left to right.
   - It makes an angle of \(55^\circ\) with the horizontal ground.

2. **Block A**:
   - A block labeled "A" is positioned on the inclined plane.
   - The line inclined at \(55^\circ\) represents the surface the block is resting on.

3. **Pulley System**:
   - **Pulley B**: Located at the top end of the inclined plane, represented by a small circle and labeled "B".
   - **Pulley C**: Positioned horizontally to the right of Pulley B, also represented by a small circle and labeled "C".

4. **Connection**:
   - The block A is connected via a string to Pulley B.
   - The string then runs horizontally from Pulley B to Pulley C.

5. **Block D**:
   - A second block, labeled "D", is hanging vertically from Pulley C by a string, extending downward to the ground.

#### Summary

The diagram effectively demonstrates a scenario where two blocks, A and D, are connected by a string that passes through a system of pulleys, with Block A situated on an inclined plane. Block A is influenced by both gravity and the tension in the string as it resides on a \(55^\circ\) inclined surface. This setup allows for the study of various dynamics and forces, such as tension, gravitational force, normal force, and friction (if applicable), within the context of classical mechanics.
