Answer:

Explanation:

To calculate the net force acting on the object, we need to consider the forward thrust force and the force of friction.

Given:

Mass of the object (m) = 2.81 kg

Forward thrust force (F_thrust) = 47.6 N

Coefficient of friction (μ) = 0.312

First, let's find the force of friction:

friction

F

friction

=μ×N

Where

N is the normal force.

The normal force is the force exerted by the surface on the object, which is equal in magnitude and opposite in direction to the gravitational force acting on the object.

N=mg

Where

g is the acceleration due to gravity (approximately

).
