<h2>Answer:</h2>

<u>The correct option is </u><u>A. perpendicular</u>

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

In Physics, the normal force is the component of a contact force that is perpendicular to the surface that an object contacts. It is the support force exerted upon an object that is in contact with another stable object. Normal Force will be always acting opposite to the force falling on the surface. For example, if a book is resting upon a surface, then the surface is exerting an upward force upon the book in order to support the weight of the book.

The normal force is always (underline, bold) is always perpendicular to the surface an object is sitting on. If the object is on an inclined plane, then the normal will not be vertical but it will be perpendicular to the angle of the incline.

The diagram below (left) shows a normal force (GH) that is not vertical, but it is perpendicular to the surface. The object on the right is the more usual normal a mass on a table top.

The vertical line on the right is the normal and it points up.

In 8.4 s a fisherman winds 2.9 m of fishing line onto a reel whose radius is 3.0 cm (assumed to be constant as an approximation)

alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

The angular speed of the reel is 11.33 rad/s

Explanation:

Given

The fisherman takes t = 8.4 s to wind distance x = 2.9 m into a circle radius of r = 3 cm = 0.03 m

Than the tangencial speed equals the change in the distance to the time

v = $\frac{x}{t}$ = $\frac{2.9 m}{8.4 s} = 0.34 \frac{m}{s}$

Knowing the tangencial velocity is proportional to the radius r and the angular velocity

v = r*w

w = $\frac{0.34 m/s}{0.03 m} = 11.33 \frac{rad}{s}$

The tires of a car support the weight of a stationary car. If one tire has a slow leak, the air pressure within the tire will __

Kipish [7]

Answer:

The tires of a car support the weight of a stationary car. If one tire has a slow leak, the air pressure within the tire will decrease with time, the surface area between the tire and the road will increase with time, and the net force the tire exerts on the road will be constant with time.

Explanation:

when a wheel has an air leak, it means that the inside of the tire has less air, which means that there will be less air pushing the walls of the tire so that the air pressure decreases.

On the other hand, the tire begins to deform due to lack of air which increases the area of contact with the floor.

As the weight of the car remains constant and the air has a negligible mass the force towards the road will be the same
