Here we can use momentum conservation as in this type of collision there is no external force on it

now here we can say




now here we can say


now by coefficient of restitution
for elastic collision we know that e = 1


now by solving the two equation


also we know that

so final speed of the nail is 6.875 m/s
<span>The support force is 15 N. The net force on the book is zero.</span>
It would be Thermal Radiation
Answer:
1,373.4 N
Explanation:
The mass of the table acts at the centre in addition to the books since that is the centre of gravity of the table.
Mass of books will be 10kg+20kg+30kg=60 kg
Total mass of table and books will be 500kg+60kg=560 kg
This mass is evenly distributed into the four legs hence 560kg/4 legs=140 kg per leg
Force is product of mass and acceleration due to gravity hence F=gm
Taking g as 9.81 m/s2 then
F=140*9.81=1,373.4 N
Therefore, rhe normal force is equivalent to 1,373.4 N
