Answer: 12 N to the right
Explanation:
If we calculate the net force acting on the box, we will have:
<u>In y-component:</u>
(1)
Where is the Normal force, directed upwards and
is the weight of the box (gravity force), directed downwards.
(2)
(3) Hence the net force in the vertical component is zero
<u>In x-component:</u>
(4)
Where and
(5)
(6) This is the net force in the horizontal component
Therefore, the total net force acting on the box is 12 N directed to the right
