The cabinet is being pulled with 200N and is being rested by a force equal to 200N. That is why it is not being moved. 


<span>Although the force of static friction can equal Fk=µs*F=m*g*µs=(30kg)*(9.8m/s^2)*(0.80)=235 N. It is not resisting the 200N force with 235N. Imagine if you pushed something with 200N and it pushed you back with 235N, especially a cabinet. You would think that the cabinet was alive.</span>

an astronaut drops a hammer and an egg while standing on the surface of the moon. which one will the surface first?
elena-s [515]
The two will fall at the same speed and reach the surface at the same time. This is because the two will experience the same gravitational acceleration on the moon. However, on the earth surface the two will land on the surface of the earth at the same time due to air resistance such that the egg will experience a higher air resistance than the hammer. On, the moon, where there is no noticeable atmosphere there is no air resistance on either object and both fall at the same speed. It is also important to note that their mass doesn't affect their speed.
