a force is a push or pull that acts upon an object as a result of its interaction with another object.  Newtons third law of motion suggests that something standing still will stay that way until another force pushes it.  This applies to Janes bag.  Every time Jane hits the brakes in her car, her bag will move forward until it finally falls off the seat.

A block is held at rest against a wall by a force of magnitude F exerted at an angle theta from the horizontal, as shown in the
wel

Answers:

B.) F cos\theta=F_{n}

C.) F sin\theta=F_{g} \pm F_{f}

Explanation:

The image attached shows the way the force F is acting on the block. Now, if we draw a free body diagram of the situation and write the equations for the Net Force in X and Y, we will have the following:

Net Force in X:

-F_{n}+F cos\theta=0 (1)

Where:

F_{n} is the Normal force

F is the magnitude of the force exerted on the block

\theta is the angle

Net Force in Y:

F sin\theta \pm F_{f}-F_{g}=0 (2)

Where:

F_{f} is the Friction force (it is expresed with the \pm sign because this force may be up or down, we cannot know because the block is at rest)

F_{g} is the gravity force

Rewrittin (1):

F cos\theta=F_{n} (3) This is according to option B

Rewritting (2):

F sin\theta=F_{g}\pm F_{f} (3) This is according to option C

As you increase the temperature, the matter begins to expand. Due to this, the distance between matter particles decreases and they are no more compact. Hence, density decreases.
