A woman at an airport is towing her 20.0-kg suitcase at constant speed by pulling on a strap at an angle 0 above the horizontal (Fig. 4.76). She pulls on the strap with a 35.0-N force, and the friction force on the suitcase is 20.0 N. (a) Draw a free-body dia- gram of the suitcase. (b) What angle does the strap make with the hori- zontal? (c) What is the magnitude of the normal force that the ground exerts on the suitcase? Figure P4.76
