A box experiencing a gravitational force of 600 N is being pulled to the right with force of 250 N. A 25 N frictional force acts on the box as it moves to the right.

What is the net force in the y-direction?

0 N

0 N

The 250 N pull and 25 N friction act horizontally, so they don't affect vertical forces. Gravity (600 N downward) is balanced by the normal force (600 N upward), so the net vertical force is zero.
