Question: A 1 6 0 - l b block is accelerated at 1 2 f t s 2 by a horizontal force F on a horizontal

A 160-lb block is accelerated at 12fts2 by a horizontal force F on a horizontal surface. If the coefficient of sliding friction between the block and surface is =0.7, the force F is best given by
(a)308 lb
(b)172 lb
c.112 lb
d.2030 lb
=160(9.81)15
v=12
f=.7
N=1570
.9(1570)1099
FN=F-UN1570-1099
F=1570(12)
Please solve with detailed steps describing the proccess to solve. Thank you
