A box is pushed across a smooth (frictionless) table and is sliding away from the person who delivered the push. After the box lost contact with the hands of the person who was pushing it the forces acting on the box area) Only gravityb) Only the force that keeps the box moving forwardc) Gravity, and the force that keeps the box moving forwardd) Normal force from the table and gravitye)Normal force from the table, gravity, and the force that keeps the box moving forward

As the box is lying on table there will be a normal force from the surface of table.Gravity act all the time on all objects. As the box loses contact with the hand the force from the hand which keeps the box moving forward is lost and object will move with constant velocity. Thus the forces acting on box after losing contact with hand are Gravity and Normal from surface Option d)
