The video tutorial explains a problem involving Newton's second law, where a man pulls a 20 kg box with a rope at a 60-degree angle, applying a force of 150 N against a friction force of 50 N. The tutorial covers the calculation of the box's acceleration by first understanding the scenario, representing forces in a diagram, and using trigonometry to find the horizontal force. Finally, the acceleration is calculated using the net force and mass, resulting in an acceleration of 3 m/s².

What is the mass of the box being pulled by the man?

• 10 kg

• 30 kg

• 40 kg

• 20 kg

At what angle is the rope being pulled with respect to the horizontal?

• 90 degrees

• 60 degrees

• 45 degrees

• 30 degrees

According to Newton's Second Law, what is the relationship between force, mass, and acceleration?

• Force = Mass * Acceleration

• Force = Mass / Acceleration

• Force = Acceleration / Mass

• Force = Mass + Acceleration

Which force acts upwards on the box?

• Gravitational force

• Normal force

• Frictional force

• Applied force

What is the magnitude of the frictional force acting on the box?

• 15 N

• 25 N

• 50 N

• 75 N

How is the horizontal component of the applied force calculated using trigonometry?

• f_x = f_applied * sin(theta)

• f_x = f_applied * cos(theta)

• f_x = f_applied / cos(theta)

• f_x = f_applied / sin(theta)

What is the value of the applied force in this scenario?

• 175 N

• 100 N

• 125 N

• 150 N

What is the net force acting on the box after considering the frictional force?
