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

Physics

4 0

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.

Among three bases, x−, y−, and z−, the strongest one is y−, and the weakest one is z−. rank their conjugate acids, hx, hy, and h
mr_godi [17]
Bases:
x-     middle strength
y-     strongest base
z-     weakest base

The bases and conjugate acids have an inverse strength. The stronger the conjugate base, the weaker its conjugate acid. 

I am considering two scenarios:
Scenario 1:
y- strongest base ; hy - weakest conjugate acid
x- middle base ; hx - middle conjugate acid
z- weakest base ; hz - strongest conjugate acid

hz → hx → hy

Scenario 2:
y-strongest base ; hy - weakest conjugate acid
x-middle base ; hx - strongest conjugate acid
z-weakest base ; hz - middle conjugate acid

hx → hz → hy

Most reactive non-metals in order?
kompoz [17]
Nonmetals often share or gain electrons. The nonmetals in the periodic table increases as you move to the right and decreases as you go down. This is because, the smaller the atom, the reactive it gets due to less electron attached to the orbits of the atom. The reactivity of nonmetals is arranged in decreasing order.   <span>
