Question

A 5.0-kg box is pulled across a horizontal floor by a rope that is 20° to the horizontal as shown in Figure 1. The box has motion to the right. The tension in the rope is 50 N. 1) What is the magnitude of the normal force on the box? 2) If the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.70, what is the magnitude of the friction force on the box? 3) What is the magnitude of the x-component of the tension force? 4) What is the acceleration of the box?

Step 1

The tension force is 50 N, and it is applied at an angle of 20° to the horizontal. To find the vertical component of the tension force, we use the sine function because it is opposite the angle in the right triangle formed by the tension force's direction. The Show more…
