1. A man pulls a box towards him at a constant speed by pulling on a handle as shown.

The free-body force diagrams for the box and the man are shown.

A. Identify the pair of forces that have the same magnitude due to Newton’s third law

B. The angle between the pull of the man on the box and the horizontal is 35°. The mass of the
box is 85.0 kg.
i. Show that the pull of the man on the box is about 400 N. normal contact force of the
ground on the box = 620 N
ii. The box moves at a constant speed towards the man. Calculate the frictional force
between the box and the ground.

2. A woman at an airport is towing her 20.0-kg suitcase at constant speed by pulling on a strap at an
angle of θ above the horizontal. She pulls on the strap with a 35.0-N force, and the frictional force
on the suitcase is 20.0 N. Draw a free-body diagram for the suitcase.
A. What angle does the strap make with the horizontal?
B. What normal force does the ground exert on the suitcase ?

3. A person pushes a 14.0-kg lawn mower at constant speed with a force of F = 88 N directed along the
handle, which is at an angle of 45.0° to the horizontal look at the picture below.
A. Draw the free- body diagram showing all forces acting on the mower. Calculate
B. he horizontal friction force on the mower, then
C. the normal force exerted vertically upward on the mower by the ground.
