I'm not sure about the magnitude, but the direction of the normal force is upward.

Magnitude : 25 N

Direction: upward

Explanation:

The weight of the book is 25 N and is directed downward: this is the force exerted by the book on the table.

As stated in Newton's third law, for every object A that exerts a force on an object B, object B exerts an equal and opposite force on object A.

In this case, object A is the book and object B is the table. Based on Newton's third law, we can say that the table exerts an equal and opposite force on the book: therefore, the magnitude of the normal force is equal to the weight of the book (25 N), while the direction is opposite (so, upward).

gogolik [260]

From the law of the conservation of energy;  the ratio of the total kinetic energy after the collision to the total kinetic energy before the collision must be 1.

<h3>What is momentum?</h3>

The term momentum is the product of mass and velocity. The principle of conservation of linear momentum states that total momentum before collision must be the same as the total momentum after collision thus the  ratio of the total momentum after the collision to the total momentum before the collision must be 1.

Also, from the law of the conservation of energy;  the ratio of the total kinetic energy after the collision to the total kinetic energy before the collision must be 1.

A 55.0-kg box rests on a horizontal surface. The coefficient of static friction between the box and the surface is 0.300. What h
MariettaO [177]

Answer:

161.86 N

Explanation:

mass of box m= 55.0 kg

weight of the box, mg= 55×9.81

g here is acceleration due to gravity =9.81 m/sec^2

coefficient of friction between the box and the surface μ= 0.3

the friction force F_s= μmg= 0.3×55×9.81

=161.86 N

to move the ball horizontal force required is 161.86 N
