A 100 N force, directed at an angle θ above a horizontal floor, is applied to a 25.0 kg chair sitting on the floor. If θ = 0°, what are (a) the horizontal component Fh of the applied force and (b) the magnitude FN of the normal force of the floor on the chair? If θ = 30.0°, what are (c) Fh and (d) FN? If θ = 60.0°, what are (e) Fh and (f) FN?
