A man exerts a force of 500 newton on a 50kg box the box accelerates at 9ms2 what is the friction force of the box can you put the working out?

Force = mass x acceleration
F = ma In the problem we know the force exerted, the mass and the acceleration.
F = 500 N
m = 50 kg
a = 9 m/s2
How much force was needed to get a 50 kg object to accelerate at 9 m/s2?
Use the formula.
F = ma
=50 x 9
=450 N
Force applied = 500 N
Friction Force = 500 - 450
=50 N

How is it true that that if earth pulls on a grapefruit with a force of 1 newton the grapefruit also exerts a force of 1 newton on Earth?
It is true. Such forces always come in pairs. (This is related to Conservation of Momentum.) Of course, the effect of such a force on the Earth - the amount Earth accelerates, if you release the grapefruit - will be much less than the effect on the grapefruit (by Newton's Second Law).
When you drop a 0.40 Kg apple earth exerts a force on it that accelerates it 9.8 ms2 toward the earth's surface according to Newton's third law the apple must exert an equal and opposite force on?
I believe earth eats the apple. that's it.
What is the reaction force of a man pushing a car?
Let's first imagine the man pushing on a car with the handbrake on. Obviously, the car does not move. The man is applying a force F (let us call it F1). The static friction of the brakes on the car are applying a force we shall call F2.Now, we know from Newton's laws that F = mass x acceleration (F = ma). The car is not accelerating, so F = 0. That is the net force of the man/car system is zero. So, F1 + F2 = 0, or if you prefer, F1 = -F2.In this case, the force of the man's feet on the ground cannot overcome the force of the brakes on the wheels. So the car does not move.Now, what happens if we release the handbrake? If enough force is applied to overcome the friction of the wheels and axles etc, the car will accelerate (a).The man's feet exert a force on the ground and the ground exerts an equal and opposite for on the man's feet. (Newton's 3rd law)The friction of the wheels exerts a force on the ground and the ground exerts an equal and opposite force on the wheels. (Newton's 3rd law)The man exerts a force on the car... and the car exerts an equal and opposite force on the man (3rd law)But, the force of the man's feet on the ground is greater than the opposing force of the wheel's friction on the ground. Therefore, there is a net force and the "man + car" system accelerates. Note that Newton's 3rd law applies to each pair of objects (car/ground), (car/man), (man/ground) seperately.
True or false if an object accelerates a push or pull must be acting on it?
If an object accelerates, there must be a force acting on it according to newton's second law, so I would answer true.
What Force That Gravity exerts on a mass?
Gravity is approximately a 9.8 newton force towards the center of the earth.

What does a newton maesure?
A newton is a measure of force. The force that accelerates 1 kilogram by 1 meter / second2 is defined as 1 newton.
Is the force it exerts on a person equal and opposite to the force a person exerts on it?
While it isn't clear what "it" refers to, in general, the answer is yes - according to Newton's Third Law.

What is the SI unit for Friction?
[Simple Explanation]As friction is a force and the S.I. unit of force is Newton,the S.I. unit of friction is Newton.[Derivative Explanation]F=µN,where F is Frictional force,µ is coefficient of friction,and N is net normal reaction.N = -mgwhere mg is gravitational force whose SI unit is Newton.-(1)Coefficient of friction is dimensionless. -(2)From (1) and (2), SI unit of F = SI unit of N x SI unit of µ = NewtonHence SI of Friction is Newton.
Newton's Law states that when one object exerts a force on a second object the second object always exerts a force back on the first object that's equal in magnitude and opposite in d?
Yes. This is Newton's Third Law,
