A chair of mass 15.5 kg is sitting on the horizontal floor; the floor is not frictionless. You push on the chair with a force F = 44.0 N that is directed at an angle of 40.0 ° below the horizontal and the chair slides along the floor.

Pushing a Chair along the Floor A chair of weight 85.0 N lies atop a horizontal floor; the floor is not frictionless. You push on the chair with a force of F = 45.0 N directed at an angle of 37.0° below the horizontal, and the chair slides along the floor.

A chair of weight 120 N lies atop a horizontal floor; the floor is not frictionless. You push on the chair with a force of FFF = 42.0 N directed at an angle of 35.0 ∘ below the horizontal and the chair slides along the floor. Using Newton's laws, calculate n, the magnitude of the normal force that the floor exerts on the chair.
