A book that weighs 19 Newtons sits on a table. With what force

Physics
1 answer:
iVinArrow [24]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

We know there's two forces acting on a book while it sits on a table:the force of gravity pulling it down, and the normal force of the table acting upward on the book. The book isn't accelerating while it sits there. That's because the weight of the book is being counteracted by the normal force of the table.

Explanation:

There are two forces acting upon the book. One force - the Earth's gravitational pull - exerts a downward force. The other force - the push of the table on the book (sometimes referred to as a normal force) - pushes upward on the book.

ioda

Answer:

B. It begins to rotate counterclockwise

Explanation:

It can happen that the merry-go-round remains at rest in the case when the person is standing on the axle  of the merry go round whose axis is fixed to some rigid support, but here the person is standing at the center of the merry-go-round not at the axle hence the according to the conservation of angular momentum. Angular momentum is given as:

L=I.\omega

for the conservation of momentum

I.\omega=I'.\omega'

where:

I= moment of inertia of the merry-go-round

\omega= angular velocity of the merry-go-round

I'= moment of inertia of the bicycle wheel

\omega'= angular velocity of the wheel

As the person tries to stop the wheel which is rotating then the person feels an opposing force which tries to moves the whole system in its direction.

cindy exerts a force of 40 newtons and moves a chair 6 meters. her brother andy pushes a different chair for 6 meters while exer
Reika [66]
Work formula:
W = F * d
F 1 = 40 N, d 1 = 6 m;
F 2 = 30 N; d 2 = 6 m.
W ( Cindy ) = 40 * 6 = 240 Nm
W ( Andy ) = 30 * 6 = 180 Nm
The difference of their amounts if work:
240 Nm - 180  Nm = 60 Nm

when a person uses an iron to remove wrinkles from a shirt why does heat travel to the iron to the shirt
steposvetlana [31]

<u>Explanation</u>
The Iron is incontact with the shirt. So, heat is transferred from the iron to the shirt because they are in contact. 
Before the contact, there is temperature difference between the shirt and the iron. When they come into contact there must be exchange of heat energy, this happens until equilibrium state is reach.
