Achair of weight 70.0 n lies atop a horizontal floor; the floor is not frictionless. you push on the chair with a force of f = 41.0 n directed at an angle of 37.0 ∘ below the horizontal and the chair slides along the floor. part a using newton's laws, calculate n, the magnitude of the normal force that the floor exerts on the chair. express your answer in newtons.

94.67 N

Explanation:

Consider a free body diagram with force, F of 41 N applied at an angle of 37 degrees while the weight acts downwards. Resolving the force into vertical and horizontal components, we obtain a free body diagram attached.

At equilibrium, normal reaction is equal to the sum of the weight and the vertical component of the force applied. Applying the condition of equilibrium along the vertical direction.  

Substituting 70 N for W, 41 N for F and for 37 degrees

N=70+41sin37=94.67441595  N and rounding off to 2 decimal places

N=94.67 N
