A woman pulls a shopping car with a force F at an angle of 35. The car mass is 20kg and its friction coefficient is 0.05. Find:
(A) The force the woman needs to apply to move the car with a constant velocity of 1m/s.
(B) The magnitude of the normal force and friction when the car moves at constant velocity.
(C) The force the woman needs to exert to push the car with a constant velocity of 1/s.
(D) The Displacement if the car is pushed 5 seconds and the displacement if the car is pulled 5 seconds.
