What applied horizontal force will accelerate a 200 kg crate at 1 m/s squared across a factory floor against a friction force half its weight? A 600 NB 1600 NC 1200 N D 2400 N

Respuesta :

We have the next data

m= 200 kg

a=1m/s^2

first we need to calculate the weight

[tex]W=200\cdot9.8=1960N[/tex]

Then we need to calculate the friction force

[tex]F_R=\frac{1960}{2}=980N[/tex]

then

[tex]\begin{gathered} F-Fr=ma \\ F-980=200(1) \\ F=980+200=1180N \end{gathered}[/tex]

the nearest value is 1200N therefore the correct choice is C.
