Answer :

Answer:

The net force used on the box was 480 N

Explanation:

Mechanical Force

According to the second Newton's law, the net force exerted by an external agent on an object of mass m is:

F = ma

Where a is the acceleration of the object.

The mass of a box is m=200 kg and it's accelerated at a=2.4\ m/s^2 by a net force whose magnitude is:

F = 200 * 2.4 N

F = 480 N

The net force used on the box was 480 N
