A 23 kg suitcase is being pulled with a constant speed by a handle that is at an angle of 29° above the horizontal. If the normal force exerted on the suitcase is 150 N, what is the force F applied to the handle?

Up force from pulling= Fsin29

Normal force= mg-up force
150N=23*9.8-Fsin29
solve for F.
