Answer:
Explanation:
Given 
Initial reading on scale =40 N
So, we can conclude that weight of the sack is 40 N
After this a 10 N force is applied upward on the sack such that the net force becomes (40-10) N downward (because downward force is more)
This net downward force is the resultant of earth graviational pull and the applied upward force.
So, this downward force acts on the machine which inturn applies an upaward force of same magnitude called Normal reaction.
This situation can be diagramatically represented by figure given below  
 
        
             
        
        
        
<u>Option b. </u>A smaller magnitude of momentum and more kinetic energy.
<h3>What is a momentum?</h3>
- In Newtonian physics, an object's linear momentum, translational momentum, or simply momentum is defined as the product of its mass and velocity.
- It has both a magnitude and a direction, making it a vector quantity. The object's momentum, p, is defined as: p=mv if m is the object's mass and v is its velocity (also a vector quantity).
- The kilogram metre per second (kg m/s), or newton-second in the International System of Units (SI), is the unit used to measure momentum.
- The rate of change of a body's momentum is equal to the net force exerted on it, according to Newton's second law of motion.
