This is not balanced
Answer:
a) 1504.8 J
b) 991.76 J
c) 0J
d) 0J
Explanation:
(a) The work done by the force P on the box is given by the following formula:

P: applied force = 171N
x: distance in which the for P is applied = 8.80m
you replace the values of P and x and obtain:

(b) The work don by the friction force is:

μ = coefficient of kinetic friction = 0.250
M: mass of the box = 46.0kg
g: gravitational constant = 9.8 m/s^2

(c) The Normal force is

but this force does not do work on the box because the direction is perpendicular to the direction of the force P.

(d) the same as before:

Well it seems that you did not give answer choices, but that its fine since we can use newtons law of universal gravitational, Fg = GM1M2/r^2. So G is the gravitational constant, which is 6.67*10^-11, we can plug in 6*1024 for M1, and 7*1022 for M2, and 3.8*108 for r. Which then we get 1.74 * 10^8 N as the force of attraction between the Earth and the moon.
