The frictional force is 39.4 N
Explanation:
We can solve this problem by applying Newton's 2nd law of motion: in fact, the net force acting on the block is equal to the product between its mass and its acceleration. So we can write
where
is the net force
m is the mass
a is the acceleration
Here we know that the box is moving with constant velocity, so its acceleration is zero:
This means that the net force is also zero:
The net force on the block is given by the applied force, forward, and the frictional force, backward:
where
is the applied force
is the frictional force
Therefore, solving for ,
