Problem

A 4.0 kg4.0\,\text{kg} crate on a horizontal surface is pulled toward the right by a rope exerting a constant 22 N22\,\text{N} force. Kinetic friction between the crate and the surface exerts a 16 N16\,\text{N} force opposite the motion. What is the magnitude of the crate’s acceleration? a) 9.5 m/s29.5\,\text{m/s}^2 b) 0.27 m/s20.27\,\text{m/s}^2 c) 1.5 m/s21.5\,\text{m/s}^2 d) 5.5 m/s25.5\,\text{m/s}^2
