Answer

4.8 N

If the box is moving with a constant velocity, then we can say that the system is in equilibrium. This is because if the external force (F->) was greater than other forces the box would be accelerating. This tells us that this force (F->) is just enough to overcome friction and so it must be equal to 4.8 N.

The normal force has no effect to the horizontal velocities or forces. It is equal to -Weight. That is -74 N. The negative sign shows that the force is in opposite direction.

mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

Explanation:

s = ½at²

a = 2s/t²

a = 2(201) / 5.0²

a = 16.08

a = 16 m/s²

A 4 kilogram box is at rest on a frictionless floor. A net force of 12 newtons acts on it. What is the acceleration of the box?
Rashid [163]

Answer:

<h2>3 m/s^2</h2>

Explanation:

Step one:

given

Mass m= 4kg

Force F= 12N

Required

Acceleration the relation between force, acceleration, and mass is Newton's first equation of motion, which says a body will continue to be at rest or uniform motion unless acted upon by an external force

F=ma

a=F/m

a=12/4

a=3 m/s^2
