Answer:
Fr = 150 [N]
a = 5 [m/s²]
Explanation:
In order to find the resulting force, we must assume that the thrust force is positive to the right, while the friction force is negative to the left.
[tex]F_{r}=200-50\\F_{r}=150[N][/tex]
Now Newton's Second Law tells us that the sum of the forces or the resulting force is equal to the product of mass by acceleration.
F = m*a
[tex]150 = 30*a\\a=150/30\\a = 5 [m/s^{2} ][/tex]
