Problem 2. A woman applies a constant force to pull a 10.0kg box across a floor. The force is large enough to cause the box to accelerate horizontally forward (toward the woman) at 1.00m/s2. The woman applies this force by pulling on a rope that makes an angle of 36.9 above the horizontal, and for the box-floor interface, the coefficient of kinetic friction is k=0.200. (a) Draw a Mazur-style free-body diagram (FBD, not EFBD) for the box. Show all forces acting on the box and separately indicate the acceleration of the box. (b) Find the tension in the rope. (c) Label your FBD with numerical values for all of the forces that you indicated on your diagram. (d) How far does the box travel in 2.0 seconds
