Answer:
The box will experience an acceleration.
Explanation:
Here, 2 N and 3 N forces are acting opposite to each other. In this case, the net force experience by the box would be (3-2)N = 1 N towards right. Since acceleration is directly proportional to the net force, therefore the box will experience an acceleration.
