Understanding the forces acting on an object is fundamental to analyzing motion and energy. When a force is applied to an object, it can result in motion, change the state of motion, or cause deformation. In the context of this exercise, consider four main forces:

• Applied Force (\( \overrightarrow{\mathbf{P}} \)): This is the force exerted to move the box, which in this case has a magnitude of 160 N.
• Gravitational Force (\( \overrightarrow{\mathbf{W}} \)): This force acts downward due to the mass of the box and Earth's gravity, calculated as\( m \times g \), where\( m \) is the mass of the box and\( g \) is the gravitational acceleration.
• Normal Force (\( \overrightarrow{\mathbf{N}} \)): Acting perpendicular to the surface, this force supports the box against gravity. It's equal in magnitude and opposite to the gravitational force when the object is on a horizontal plane without vertical motion.
• Kinetic Friction Force (\( \overrightarrow{\mathbf{f}}_k \)): Opposing the motion, this force arises from the contact between the box and the floor. It's dependent on the normal force and the coefficient of kinetic friction.

Recognizing these forces helps in calculating their work contributions, which reflects the movement's energy changes.

Work is the energy transferred by a force acting over a distance. In physics, work occurs when a force causes an object to move. The formula for work done by a force is given by\( W = F \cdot d \cdot \cos(\theta) \), where\( F \) is the force magnitude,\( d \) is the displacement, and\( \theta \) is the angle between them.
In our scenario:

• **Applied Force Work**: The force is parallel to the displacement (\( \theta = 0 \)), resulting in maximum work done:\( W_P = 160 \, \mathrm{N} \times 7.0 \, \mathrm{m} = 1120 \, \mathrm{J} \).
• **Gravitational Work**: Since this force acts perpendicular to the displacement (\( \theta = 90^\circ \)), no work is done here:\( W_\text{gravity} = 0 \, \mathrm{J} \).
• **Normal Force Work**: Similar to gravity, the force is perpendicular. Hence,\( W_\text{normal} = 0 \, \mathrm{J} \).
• **Frictional Work**: Kinetic friction acts against the movement direction, making its work negative:\( W_\text{friction} = -134.75 \, \mathrm{N} \times 7.0 \, \mathrm{m} = -943.25 \, \mathrm{J} \).

By summing these, we understand how different forces impact the energy state of the box.

Kinetic friction is a force that opposes the relative motion between two surfaces in contact. This force acts parallel to the surfaces and opposite to the direction of motion. In the context of our exercise, the box slides across the floor, making kinetic friction an important force to consider.
The magnitude of the kinetic friction force is determined by the equation:\[ f_k = \mu_k \cdot N \]where\( f_k \) is the kinetic friction force,\( \mu_k \) is the coefficient of kinetic friction, and\( N \) is the normal force exerted by the surface. In this case, the normal force equals the gravitational force on the box due to the absence of vertical movement.

• Coefficient (\( \mu_k = 0.25 \)): This dimensionless value characterizes the friction between the surfaces.
• Normal Force (\( N = 539 \, \mathrm{N} \)): Equal to the gravitational force as calculated.
• Resulting Frictional Force (\( f_k = 134.75 \, \mathrm{N} \)): The force opposing motion.

Recognizing the role of kinetic friction helps us compute its effect on motion by lowering the net force and influencing energy transfer during movement.
