A \(20\ \text{kg}\) block is lifted vertically by a compound pulley system consisting of a fixed pulley and a movable pulley attached to the block. The rope is pulled with a constant force \(F\). The system operates with an overall efficiency of \(80\%\) due to friction. The block is raised through a height of \(2.0\ \text{m}\) in \(5.0\ \text{s}\). Assuming the ideal mechanical advantage of the compound pulley is 2, calculate the magnitude of the pulling force \(F\) (in newtons).
