A man pushes a 20 kg broom at constant speed across


A man pushes a 2.0 kg broom at constant speed across thefloor. The broom handle makes a 50 degree angle with thefloor. He pushes the broom with a 5.0 N force.

a) What is the value of the normal force?

b) What is the value of the frictional force opposingthe motion?

c) Suppose he hits a slippery part of the flor and thefrictional force on the broom is suddently reduced to zero. Find the accleration of the broom.
