A dozer pushes up a 100 kg spool of cable along a 20° incline road at a constant velocity as shown in the figure. The coefficient of static friction between the dozer bucket and the spool (Point B) is 0.45, and coefficient of kinetic friction between road and the spool (Point A) is 0.15. Consider the spool only slides up the incline. The maximum normal force in N acting at Point B, is _______. [rounded off to 1 decimal place]
Correct : 761.4
