Answer:

F = 18 N

Step-by-step explanation:

We have,

Mass of a dresser is 36 kg

Acceleration produce on the dresser is
0.5\ m/s^2

It is required to find the force being applied on it. The force acting on an object is given by :

F = ma


F=36* 0.5\\\\F=18\ N

So, the force of 18 N is applied to it.
