A230 kg steel crate is being pushed along a cement floor. the force of friction is 480 n to the left and the applied force is 1860 n to the right. what is the acceleration of the crate?

a = 6 m/s/s

Explanation:

As we know that the steel crate is pushed along the cement floor

The applied force on the crate is towards right and its magnitude is 1860 N

while the force of friction on the crate due to floor is towards left and its magnitude is 480 N

now the net force on the crate is given as

now from Newton's II law we know that

now plug in all values in it

increase masses, decrease separation

blue light is scattered in different directions by the tiny molecules of air. blue is scattered more than other colours because it has a shorter distance to travel which results in smaller waves. this is why we see a blue sky most of the time.
