resolution of forces considering friction when a body moves on horizontal plane and inclined plane
I am reading Engneering mechanics for exams, I didn't understand this line from syllabus: resolution of forces considering friction when a body moves on horizontal plane and inclined plane. Does it simply mean resolution of forces? what does "considering friction" mean?

It just means that one or more frictional forces is involved.

A box of mass m lies on a rough floor. The coefficient of kinetic friction is ##\mu_k##.
A rope is attached to the box at angle ##\theta## above the horizontal. If the tension in the rope is T, and this is sufficient to move the box, how fast does it accelerate?
