10. During 4th period we put Klaudia in a box because she was talking too much. We still heard her voice through the box so we decided to push her outside. The force of friction of the ground on the box was 68 N. If Mr. Whitmore can apply a force of 25 N and every other 7th grade student can apply a force of 6 N. How many students would Mr. Whitmore need to make the box start moving and go outside. (Think quickly, the faster we move the box out, the quicker she stops talking)

Mr. Whitmore would need 7 or more students ( 7.17) to make the box start moving and go outside

Explanation:

Given that;

friction force of ground box = 68 N

student of 7th grade = n

Whitmore can apply a force of 25 N

every other 7th grade student can apply a force of 6 N.

now

friction force = forced applied by whitmore + total force ny 7th grade student

we substitute

68 = 25 + 6n

6n = 68 - 25

6n = 43

n = 43/6

n = 7.17

Therefore Mr. Whitmore would need 7 or more students ( 7.17) to make the box start moving and go outside

he kicked it 10 feet straight up into the air? i think this works.

what is the actual question though?
