Here is the question i have. I got the first two no prob. But ihave no idea how i got the third answer. The answers shown are all correct. So if anyone can explain how to get the third answer, thanks everyone
A person pushes a 17.0 kg lawn mower at constant speed with a force of 71.0 N directed along the handle, which is at an angle of = 46.0° to the horizontal

Calculate the horizontal retarding force on the mower = 49.3 N
Calculate the normal force exerted vertically upward on the mower by the ground =218
Calculate the force the person must exert on the lawn mower to accelerate it from rest to 1.1 m/s in 2.0 seconds (assuming the same retarding force).
=82.8
Thanks,
