a 50 kg box is pushed with a 320 N force. if the force of friction for the box and floor is 140 N, what is the acceleration of the box?
Added by Eric H.
Step 1
The net force is the difference between the applied force and the force of friction. Net force = Applied force - Force of friction Net force = 320 N - 140 N Net force = 180 N Show more…

When a horizontal force of 125 N is applied to a 15.0-kg box, the box slides on a level floor, opposed by a force of kinetic friction of 70 N. What is the magnitude of the acceleration of the box?
The coefficients of static and kinetic friction between a $50.0-\mathrm{kg}$ box and a horizontal surface are 0.500 and 0.400 respectively. (a) What is the acceleration of the object if a 250-N horizontal force is applied to the box? (b) What is the acceleration if the applied force is $235 \mathrm{~N}$ ?
