A) The weight of the box is given by:

W = mg

W = weight, m = mass, g = gravitational acceleration

Given values:

m = 3.46kg, g = 9.81m/s²

Plug in and solve for W:

W = 3.46(9.81)

W = 33.9N

B) The box is sitting at rest on the floor. This means that the box is in equilibrium; the two forces acting on it, its weight and the normal force that the floor exerts on it, are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction. Therefore the normal force N acting on the box has a magnitude of 33.9N
