A box weighing 660 N is sliding across a cement floor and the coefficient of sliding
friction between the box and the floor is 0.15. If the force pushing the box is 500 N, what
is the acceleration of the box?
O 6 m/s²
O 2 m/s²
O 10 m/s²
pts
O 9 m/s²

The acceleration of the box is 6 m/s²; option A.

What is the acceleration of the box?

The acceleration of the box is determined as follows:

Frictional force = 660 * 0.15 = 99 N

Net force = 500 - 99 = 401 N

  • Force = mass * acceleration

Mass of the box = 660/9.8 = 67.3 kg

Acceleration = net force/mass

Acceleration = 401/67.3

Acceleration = 6 m/s²

In conclusion, the acceleration of the box is determined from the net force and the mass of the box.
