Question

5. A force of 250 N is used to push a heavy box down the street. If the force of friction between
the box and the street is 195 N and the box has a mass of 60 kg, what is the acceleration of the
box? Use GRASP!

Answer 1

Answer: 0.92 m/s²

Explanation: To find the acceleration we use Summation of F=ma. Derive the formula to have a=summation of F/m

250N-195N/60kg=0.92m/s2
