Question

On a 36 kg book resting on a table and
calculate the weight and normal force.

Answer 1

Weight of book = 360N

Normal Force = 360N

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

fg = 352.8 N

fn = 352.8 N

Step-by-step explanation:

Weight is also known as force of gravity

Because the object is at rest (no work) is done or in other words no frictional force.

Or Fnet= fn + fg = 0

so start with fg

fg= m x g

fg = 36 kg x 9.8m/s

fg = 352.8 N

Because the book is at rest, normal force will be the same

fn = 352.8 N
