Answer:

the mass of the box is 51.98 kg.

Explanation:

Given;

applied horizontal force, F = 450 N

coefficient of friction, μ = 0.795

constant velocity, v = 1.2 m/s

At constant velocity, the acceleration of the object is zero and the net force will be zero.

F_{Net} = F - F_k\\\\0 = F - F_k\\\\F_k = F\\\\\mu \ N = F\\\\\mu (mg) = F\\\\m = \frac{F}{\mu  g} \\\\m = \frac{405}{0.795 \ \times \ 9.8} \\\\m = 51.98 \ kg

Therefore, the mass of the box is 51.98 kg.

Amy gets up from her seat on a train to move closer to the front. Just as she begins to walk forward, the train stops at a stati
Ivahew [28]
Have you ever been in a bus, a train, or a car ?
What happens to you when it stops suddenly ?

A body in motion continues in motion unless
an external force acts on it and makes it stop.

Amy's body keeps moving forward when the train stops.
She pitches forward, and if she doesn't reach out and grab
a seat or a seated person, she may lose her footing and fall
on her face.

Choice - 'A' is a very good explanation.
The other choices aren't.

'C' is a good hunch, but it only applies to her feet.
The rest of her keeps going.

'D' is nonsense.  There are no mysterious forces of
'repulsion' or 'attraction' on the train.
