Problem 3: Pushing a Box over a Frictionless Floor I'wo people are moving a box across a floor, as shown in the figure below. The first ties a rope to the box and pulls with a force F,,;;, with a magnitude of 65 N at an angle of 37° from the negative x-axis. The second pushes with a force F,¢,, with a magnitude of 82 N at an angle of 23° from the negative x-axis. The mass of the box is 25 kg, and there is no friction between the block and the floor. .
