Question

The value of the normal force exerted on a 2,000 gram block on a table

Answer 1

Answer:

N = 19.6 N

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of a block, m = 2000 g

1 kg = 1000 g

It means, 2000 g = 2kg

We need to find the value of normal force on the block on a table. Normal force is balanced by the weight of the block as follows :

N = mg, g is acceleration due to gravity

N = 2 kg × 9.8 m/s²

N = 19.6 N

So, the normal force acting on the block is 19.6 N.
