Answer:

The box will move towards me by the additional force of 60N.

Step-by-step explanation:

I am pulling the box with a force of 30N and my friend is pushing the box in the same direction with a force of 30N.

Here two forces are exhibited in the same direction that is towards myself as a result the box will move towards me by an additional force of 30N+30N=60N.
