    We can use such formula

    F=am, where F is resultant force acting on book, a is acceleration and m is mass

    Now we can substitute our data.

    F=1.5*2

    F=3

    If we know that on the book is acting 4N and friction force and resultt is 3N we can create such equation

    4N-Fr=3N / - 4N

    -Fr=3N-4N

    -Fr=-1N / * (-1)

    Fr=1N - its the result.
