To find the net force acting on the box, you can use Newton's second law of motion, which states:
\[ F_{\text{net}} = m \cdot a \]
Where:
- \( F_{\text{net}} \) is the net force,
- \( m \) is the mass of the object,
- \( a \) is the acceleration.
Given:
- Mass \( m = 2 \) kg
- Acceleration \( a = 3 \) m/s²
Plugging in the values:
\[ F_{\text{net}} = 2 , \text{kg} \cdot 3 , \text{m/s}^2 = 6 , \text{N} \]
Thus, the net force acting on the box is 6 Newtons.
