Help please!

A mother pulls horizontally along the handle of a baby cart of 10.0 kg mass with a force of 60 N. The frictional force between the wheels and the ground is 25 N.


Determine the normal force (also known as the support force).

Ok, so I'll assume that g=10.

In order to find the normal force all you need is the Weight since we know we are moving ok a horizontal surface.

weight = m*g = 10*10 = 100N

N-W=0

N=W

N=100N

Hope I helped :)
