Reference no: EM13541984

Someone is pulling a suitcase through an airport at constant speed. The handle of the suitcase makes an angle of 55 degree with the horizontal. The interface between the floor and lower surface of the suitcase has an effective coefficient of kinetic friction of 0.5. If the normal force exerted by the floor on the suitcase is 20N, what is the pulling force being exerted by the person parallel to the handle?
