Question

A rightward force of 302 N is applied to a 28.6-kg crate to accelerate it across the floor. The force of friction between the crate and the floor is 210. Determine the net force acting on the create. Determine the acceleration of the crate.

Answer 1

Net Force is 92N and acceleration is 3.22 m/s/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Fnet = Net force

FR = Force of friction

m = mass

a = acceleration

Fnet = ma

Fnet = F - FR = 302 - 210 = 92N

F - FR = ma

302 - 210 = (28.6)a

a = 3.22 m/s/s
