Kevin works as a janitor, and he is pushing a fully-loaded recycling bin that weighs 557 N across the floor. He applies a force of 410 N at an angle of 15° below the horizontal. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the recycling bin and the floor is 0.46. How long does it take him to move the bin 6.5 meters, assuming the bin starts from rest?   1.98 s   3.77 s   1.02 s   2.85 s
