2) Two skaters, Oleg and Michaela, are standing side by side. Oleg has a mass of 57.0 kg, Michaela has a mass of 61.5 kg. Oleg pushes on Michaela with a force of 55.0 N to the right, as shown in theimage below. If the coefficient of kinetic friction between each skater and the ice is 0.0210, then calculate Oleg's acceleration. Make sure to draw appropriate FBDS and state positive/ negative directions.
