Answer:

Option D. 9.8 N

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were:

Mass of object = 1 kg

Normal force (R) =.?

The normal force experienced by the object can be obtained by using the following formula:

Normal force (R) = mass (m) × acceleration due to gravity (g)

R = mg

Mass of object = 1 kg

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Normal force (R) =.?

R = mg

R = 1 × 9.8

R = 9.8 N

Thus, the normal force experienced by the object is 9.8 N
