You are working out on a rowing machine. Each time you pull the rowing bar (which simulates the oars) toward you, it moves a distance of 1.10 m in a time of 1.60 s. The readout on the display indicates that the average power you are producing is 78.0 W. What is the magnitude of the force that you exert on the handle? i 131 N

A 60.0 kg trunk starts at rest on a student's dorm room floor. The student pushes the trunk a distance of 10.0 m along a straight line. The student accomplishes this by exerting on the trunk a constant force of 300 N, directed 20 degrees below the horizontal. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the trunk and the floor is 0.250 . In the following, consider the period of time during which the student pushes the trunk along the 10.0 m distance. For simplicity, assume that g = 9.80 m/ 20° 300 N
