It decreases.

It remains the same.

Answer 1

When the net applied force acting on a box increases, the acceleration of the box also increases, according to Newton's second law of motion (F = ma), where F is the net force, m is the mass, and a is the acceleration. Therefore, the correct response is:

**It increases.**
