Answer:
the mass of the box is 51.98 kg.
Explanation:
Given;
applied horizontal force, F = 450 N
coefficient of friction, μ = 0.795
constant velocity, v = 1.2 m/s
At constant velocity, the acceleration of the object is zero and the net force will be zero.
[tex]F_{Net} = F - F_k\\\\0 = F - F_k\\\\F_k = F\\\\\mu \ N = F\\\\\mu (mg) = F\\\\m = \frac{F}{\mu g} \\\\m = \frac{405}{0.795 \ \times \ 9.8} \\\\m = 51.98 \ kg[/tex]
Therefore, the mass of the box is 51.98 kg.
