Question

while you push a box you begin to decrease the force you are exerting on the box. when will the box reach static equilibrium? (1 point)
○ when ( f_{push}=f_{friction} )
○ when ( f_{push}>f_{friction} )
○ when ( f_{push}<f_{friction} )
○ the box will not reach static equilibrium.

Explanation:

Static equilibrium occurs when the net force acting on an object is zero. In the case of pushing a box, the forces involved are the pushing force ($F_{push}$) and the frictional force ($F_{friction}$). When $F_{push}=F_{friction}$, the net force ($F_{net}=F_{push}-F_{friction}$) is zero. If $F_{push}>F_{friction}$, the net force is non - zero (in the direction of the push), and the box will accelerate. If $F_{push}

Answer:

When $F_{push}=F_{friction}$
