A4.00-kg box sits atop a 10.0-kg box on a horizontal table. the coefficient of kinetic friction between the two boxes and between the lower box and the table is 0.600, while the coefficient of static friction between these same surfaces is 0.800. a horizontal pull to the right is exerted on the lower box, as shown in the figure, and the boxes move together. what is the friction force on the upper box?

First, we have to calculate the normal forces on different surfaces.The normal force on the 4.00 kg, N1 = (4)(9.8) = 39.2 N. The normal force on the 10.0 kg, N2 = (14)(9.8) = 137.2 N. Looking at the 10.0 kg block, the static forces that counteract the pulling force equals the sum of the friction from the two surfaces. Fc = N1 * 0.80 + N2 * 0.80 = 141.12 N. Since the counter force is less than the pulling force, the blocks start to move and hence, kinetic frictions are considered.

Therefore, f1 = uk * N1 = (0.60)(39.2) = 23.52 N.

Answer: buoyancy forceexplanation: in simple terms, the principle states that the buoyancy force on an object is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the object, or the density of the fluid multiplied by the submerged volume times the gravitational acceleration, g. this is also known as upthrust.

It's have to be 12 or idk
