Answer:

68.8 N

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Mass (m) of box = 18 Kg

Coefficient of friction (μ) = 0.39

Force of friction (F) =?

Next, we shall determine the normal force of the box. This is illustrated below:

Mass (m) of object = 18 Kg

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Normal force (N) =?

N = mg

N = 18 × 9.8

N = 176.4 N

Finally, we shall determine the force of friction experienced by the object. This is illustrated below:

Coefficient of friction (μ) = 0.39

Normal force (N) = 176.4 N

Force of friction (F) =?

F = μN

F = 0.39 × 176.4

F = 68.796 ≈ 68.8 N

Thus, the box experience a frictional force of 68.8 N.

alexdok [17]

Actual displacement that he required to move

d_1 = 5.4 km towards North

Displacement that he moved due to snow is

d_2 = 8.1 km at 47 degree North of East

now in vector component form we can say

d_1 = 5.4 \hat j

d_2 = 8.1 cos47 \hat i + 8.1 sin47 \hat j

d_2 = 5.52 \hat i + 5.92 \hat j

now the displacement that is more required to reach the destination is given as

d = d_1 - d_2

d = 5.4\hat j - (5.52 \hat i + 5.92\hat j)

d = -5.52 \hat i - 0.52 \hat j

so the magnitude of the displacement is given as

d = \sqrt{5.52^2 + 0.52^2}

d = 5.54 km

its direction is given as

\theta = tan^{-1}\frac{0.52}{5.52} = 5.38 degree

so it is 5.54 km towards 5.38 degree North of West.
