The net force acting on the book is the difference between the pushing force and the frictional force.
Net force = Pushing force - Frictional force
Net force = 7 N - 3 N
Net force = 4 N to the right
Since the net force is to the right, the book will move to the right.
Therefore, the correct answer is: The book will move to the right.
A pushing force of 7 N to the right is applied to a book on a table. A frictional force of 3 N is applied in the opposite direction.
In which direction will the book move?
(1 point)
The book will stay stationary.
More information is needed.
