A bicyclist of mass 68 kgkg (including the bicycle) can coast down a 6.1 ∘∘ hill at a steady speed of 6.0 km/hkm/h because of air resistance. How much force must be applied to climb the hill at the same speed (and the same air resistance)? Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.
