A person pushes a shopping cart with a force of 91 N acting down at 45°. If the cart travels at a constant speed of 1.4 m/s, what is the value of the combined retarding force acting horizontally on the cart due to friction and air drag? [Hint: It is the horizontal component of the force that drives the cart forward. The constant speed tells you that Fx = ma = 0.]

You slide a 325-N trunk up a 19.0° inclined plane with a constant velocity by exerting a force of 213 N parallel to the plane.
(a) What is the component of the trunk's weight parallel to the plane?
N
(b) What is the sum of your applied force, friction, and the parallel component of the trunk's weight?
N
Why?
