In this simulation, students can adjust the mass of the box, the magnitude of the external force that is applied to the box (applied force), the co-efficient of friction between the box and the surface, and the angle at which the external force is applied. If you are new to this simulation there is a help page available that will explain how to use this simulation. Just simply click on "Help".
