Question

A box of 10 kg on a table has been exposed to an applied pressing force of 250 N. Calculate the Normal force.

Answer 1

350N

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the weight of the box by using this formula;

W = mg

W = 10 × 9.8

W = 98N

Then, total up the weight with the exerted pressure;

98N + 250N

= 348N

≈ 350N (2sf)

I hope this helps! Let me know if I miscalculated anything!
