Explanation:

Equilibrium is a state of a system which does not change. ... An equilibrium is considered stable (for simplicity we will consider asymptotic stability only) if the system always returns to it after small disturbances. If the system moves away from the equilibrium after small disturbances, then the equilibrium is unstable.

Answer:

F = 69.5 [N]

Explanation:

We must remember that the friction force is defined as the product of the normal force by the coefficient of friction, and it can be calculated by the following expression.

$f=N*miu$

where:

N = normal force [N]

miu = friction coefficient

f = friction force = 22 [N]

Now we must calculate the force exerted by means of Newton's second law which tells us that the sum of forces on a body is equal to the product of mass by acceleration.

$F - f = m*a$

where:

F = force exerted [N]

f = friction force [N]

m = mass = 95 [kg]

a = acceleration = 0.5 [m/s²]

Now replacing:

$F - 22 = 95*0.5\\F = 47.5 + 22\\F = 69.5 [N]$
