Asked by J
                A 22 kg suitcase is being pulled with constant speed by a handle that is at an angle of 23 ∘ above the horizontal. 
If the normal force exerted on the suitcase is 150 N , what is the force F applied to the handle?
I don't understand how the equations are suppose to be manipulated. Please help

    I assume you mean by "the normal force" the force the floor is exerting.
Normal force=weight-forcepulling up
= mass*9.8N/kg - F*sin23=150N
F=(mass*9.8-150)/sin23 deg
    
Normal force=weight-forcepulling up
= mass*9.8N/kg - F*sin23=150N
F=(mass*9.8-150)/sin23 deg
