Question

A box is pulled to the right with a force of 65 n at an angle of 58 degrees to the horizontal the surface of frictional is the Freebody diagram shown what is the net force of the X direction

Answer 1

The force acting in x direction is 34.44 N

Step-by-step explanation:

We have,

Force acting on the box is 65 N at an angle of 58 degrees to the horizontal the surface of frictional.

It is required to find the net force in x- direction.

The net force acting in the x- direction is given by :

`F_x=F\cos\theta\\\\F_x=65* \cos(58)\\\\F_x=34.44\ N`

So, the force acting in x direction is 34.44 N.
