A 100 N box is initially at rest on a rough horizontal surface. The coefficient of static friction between the block and the surface is 0.6 and the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.4 . A man decides to move the box so he applies a steadily increasing horizontal force FApplied on the box to the right as shown. The graph on the left below shows the horizontal force FApplied on the box as it goes from 0 to 80 N as a function of time over 4 seconds. In the graph on the right below, sketch the frictional force exerted on the box by the surface as a function of time. Explain.
