Sure !
Start with Newton's second law of motion:
Net Force = (mass) x (acceleration) .
This formula is so useful, and so easy, that you really
should memorize it.
Now, watch:
The mass of the box is 5.25 kilograms, and the box is
accelerating at the rate of 2.5 m/s² .
What's the net force on the box ?
Net Force = (mass) x (acceleration)
= (5.25 kilograms) x (2.5 m/s²)
Net force = 13.125 newtons .
But hold up, hee haw, whoa ! Wait a second !
Bella is pushing with a force of 15.75 newtons, but the box
is accelerating as if the force on it is only 13.125 newtons.
What happened to the rest of Bella's force ? ?
==> Friction is pushing the box in the opposite direction,
and cancelling some of Bella's force.
How much ?
(Bella's 15.75 newtons) minus (13.125 that the box feels)
= 2.625 newtons backwards, applied by friction.
The most important function of a landfill is to store and get rid of solid waste which it provides an area where waste is disposed of and can be managed properly in order to reduce health and environmental risk<span />
