A 20 kg box is pushed across a carpeted floor with an applied force of 65 N. The friction acting against the box has a force of 23 N. What is the acceleration of the box?

Use the formula F=ma

Force is going to be 88, because the frictional force acting against it increases the force. So we need to add the frictional and applied force together.

f= 88

m= 20

a=?

F=ma

88=20 x a

88/20 = a

a= 4.4 m/s^2

sleep paralysis is a parasomnia, events associated with sleep.

sleep paralysis happens when you are in the middle of waking up or falling asleep. it is the feeling of being conscious but unable to move. it definitely involves hallucinations.

i had a friend that had sleep paralysis and he told me a story one time where he was laying in bed and he couldn't move his body no matter how hard he tried and there was someone standing in the corner of his room coming towards him. he couldn't move and you can't "wake up" because you are already conscious. sometimes sleep paralysis can be triggered by frequent waking up during the night based off of multiple trips to the bathroom, or if you had ever been abused, sleep paralysis can start happening from things like that.
