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).

What Is the acceleration of a toy car that starts from rest and has a speed of 0.12 m/s after 0.1?
VikaD [51]

Given: Initial velocity of toy car (u ) = 0

Final velocity of toy car (v) = 0.12 m/s

Required time (t) = 0.1 s

To find: The acceleration of the toy car.

Let the acceleration of the toy car be (a)

Formula Used: 1st kinematic equation of motion

                              v = u + at ---------------------------(i)

Here, all alphabets are in their usual meanings

Now, from equation (i), we shall calculate the value of 'a'.

so,                          a = (v - u) /t

or,                          a = (0.12 m/s - 0) / 0.1s

or,                          a = 1.2 m/s²

Hence, the required acceleration of the toy car will be 1.2 m/s².
