Problem Solving Emily is flying off to Paris. Unfortunately, the wheels of her luggage fell off. So, she ties a rope to it and drags it along the floor of the airport terminal. The rope makes a 30.0° angle with the horizontal. The luggage has a mass of 25.0 kg and Beatrice pulls on the rope with a force of 65.0 N. (a) What is the magnitude of the normal force acting on the luggage due to the floor? (b) If the coefficient of kinetic friction between the luggage and the marble floor is lk = 0.13, find the frictional force acting on the suitcase. CLAIM GATE
