Solutions are (1) $5\;\rm{N$ (2) $5\;\rm{N$ (3) Yes, the crate will accelerate.

Explanation:

Given: A force of $10\;\rm{N$ toward the right is exerted on a wooden crate initially moving to the right on a horizontal wooden floor and the crate weight is $25\;\rm{N$

(1) The magnitude of the force of friction between the crate and the floor is formulated as: $F_f=\mu{mg$ .

$F_f=0.2\times25=5\;\rm{N$

(2) Two forces acting on the crate along the horizontal direction:

Since, the two forces are in opposite directions, the net force is given by their difference: $F_{net}=F-F_f=10-5=5\;\rm{N$

(3) Yes

The crate is accelerating. By using the Second Newton's Law:

$F_{net}=ma$

Where, $F_{net$ is the net force on the crate, is its mass, is its acceleration. Since, $F_{net$ is not , then the acceleration is also $\neq 0$ , so the crate is accelerating.

1) 5 N

The crate is initially moving, so we must calculate the force of kinetic friction, which is given by:

$F_f = \mu_k mg$

where

$\mu_k=0.2$ is the coefficient of friction between the crate (made of wood) and the floor (made of wood). The coefficient of kinetic friction between wood and wood is about 0.2.

mg=25 N is the weight of the crate

Substituting the numbers into the formula, we find

F_f=(0.2)(25 N)=5 N

2) 5 N

There are two forces acting on the crate along the horizontal direction:

- The force that pushes the crate toward the right, of magnitude F=10 N

- The force of friction, which acts in the opposite direction (so, towards the left), of magnitude F_f = 5 N

Since the two forces are in opposite directions, the net force is given by their difference:

$F_{net}=F-F_f = 10 N-5 N=5 N$

3) Yes

The crate is accelerating. In fact, according to Second Newton's Law:

$F_{net}=ma$ (1)

where Fnet is the net force on the crate, m is its mass, a is its acceleration. We can immediately see that since Fnet is not zero, the acceleration is also non-zero, so the crate is accelerating.

We can even calculate the magnitude of the acceleration. In fact, the mass of the crate is given by:

$m=\frac{Weight}{g}=\frac{25 N}{9.8 m/s^2}=2.55 kg$

And by using (1) we find

$a=\frac{F_{net}}{m}=\frac{5 N}{2.55 kg}=1.96 m/s^2$
