If there is an object in top of another object, why does the upper object exert a downward normal force?​

Physics

Answer:

This is because normal force is exerted perpendicularly to the point of contact between the upper and lower objects.  

Explanation:

This is because the upper object is still subject to gravitational pull. Therefore, the amount of force it exerts on the lower object due to gravity will be equal to the normal force that acts in the negative direction of gravitational force. Additionally, normal force is evident because the upper object will not go into the lower object.

A particle with charge -40.0nC is on the x axis at the point with coordinate x=0 . A second particle, with charge -20.0 nC, is on the x axis at x=0.500 m.

No, there is no point at a finite distance where the electric potential is zero.

Hence, Option D) is correct.

What is electric potential?

Electric potential is the capacity for doing work. In the electrical case, a charge will exert a force on some other charge and the potential energy arises. For example, if a positive charge Q is fixed at some point in space, any other positive charge when brought close to it will experience a repulsive force and will therefore have potential energy.

It is also defined as the amount of work required to move a unit charge from a reference point to a specific point against an electric field.
