Two movers are attempting to push a couch up a ramp. One mover applies a force of 75 N to the right, but the force of friction between the couch and the ramp is providing a force of 110 N in the opposite direction, and the couch slides down the ramp. At minimum, how much force will the second mover need to apply to help push the couch up the ramp? (1 point) Responses 110 N 110 N 36 N 36 N 35 N 35 N 75 N

The net force required to push the couch up the ramp can be calculated by subtracting the force of friction from the force applied by the first mover.
Net force = Force applied by mover 1 - Force of friction
Net force = 75 N - 110 N
Net force = -35 N
Since the net force is negative, it means that the second mover needs to apply a force of 35 N in the opposite direction (up the ramp).
Therefore, the minimum force the second mover needs to apply is 35 N.
Net force = Force applied by mover 1 - Force of friction
Net force = 75 N - 110 N
Net force = -35 N
Since the net force is negative, it means that the second mover needs to apply a force of 35 N in the opposite direction (up the ramp).
Therefore, the minimum force the second mover needs to apply is 35 N.
