Answer:
Explanation:
Given that,
Mass of cabinet, m = 45 kg
Two horizontal force of 25 newtons and 18 newtons respectively in the same direction.
When the forces are acting in same direction, the net force is equal to the sum of forces i.e.
F = 25 N + 18 N = 43 N
Let a is the aceleration of the cabinet
So,
F = ma
So, the acceleration of the cabinet is .
