    Does anyone know how to solve i try to self learn?

    The equations used are: 1)ΣF=ma 2)fk = μkN 3)fs ≤ μsN 4)Fs = - kx Here are the questions: 1. If ΣF is 10N and a=1 m/s^2, find m using the first equation 2. Given ΣF = fk, m=250 kg, μk=0.2, and N = 10m, find a. 3. ΣF=T-10m, but a=0 m/s^2. Use the first equation to find m in terms of T...
