You are pushing a heavy box across a rough floor. when you are initially pushing the box and it is accelerating, (a) you exert a force on the box, but the box does not exert a force on you. (b) the box is so heavy it exerts a force on you, but you do not exert a force on the box. (c) the force you exert on the box is greater than the force of the box pushing back on you. (d) the force you exert on the box is equal to the force of the box pushing back on you. (e) the force that the box exerts on you is greater than the force you exert on the box.

The answer is C. If the box is accelerating, that means that the amount of force you are exerting is greater than the force of the box.

(c) the force you exert on the box is greater than the force of the box pushing back on you.

Explanation:

When a force is exerted on an object such that it starts accelerating without any change in the state of rest of the source of the force that always means that the reaction force of the object on the source is less than the action force.

This condition is in accordance with Newton's second law and Newton's third law.

kepler used the data from tycho blahe (his mentor) to construct the laws of planetary motion.

report!

explanation:

physics means: "the branch of science concerned with the nature and properties of matter and energy. the subject matter of physics, distinguished from that of chemistry and biology, includes mechanics, heat, light and other radiation, sound, electricity, magnetism, and the structure of atoms."
