Suppose you have a 148-kg wooden crate resting on a wood floor. (a) what maximum force (in n) can you exert horizontally on the crate without moving it?

1450.4 newtons has to be applied so the object can move, because At average gravity on Earth (conventionally, g = 9.80665 m/s2), a kilogram mass exerts a force of about 9.8 newtons. An average-sized apple exerts about one newton of force, which we measure as the apple's weight.
