Question
A student applies a 200 N force at an angle 60° below the horizontal to a 20 kg box initially at rest on a level surface. The applied force causes the box to accelerate. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the box and the surface is 0.25.
- What is the normal force on the box?
- What is the friction force on the box?
- What is the box’s acceleration?
