Answer:
F = 104.832 N
Explanation:
given,
upward acceleration of the lift = 1.90 m/s²
mass of box containing new computer = 28 kg.
coefficient of friction = 0.32
magnitude of force = ?
box is moving at constant speed hence acceleration will be zero.
Now force acting due to lift moving upward =
F = μ m ( g + a )
F = 0.32 × 28 × ( 9.8 + 1.9 )
F = 104.832 N
hence, the force applied should be equal to 104.832 N
