A 23 kg suitcase is being pulled with a constant speed by a handle that is at an angle of 25° above the horizontal. If the normal force exerted on the suitcase is 155 N, what is the force F applied to the handle?

Do a vertical frce balance.
The "normal force" is the force upward exerted by the ground on the suitcase.
155 N + X sin 25 = M g (the weight)
X is the force applied to the handle and M = 23 kg.
Solve for X
0.4226 X = 225.6 - 155 = 70.6 N

THANK YOU!

(I left out the last step)
X = 70.6/0.4226 N
X = 70.6/0.4226 N
