box and the normal force that the
box exerts on the
box.
ANSWER:
Solution:
We have to calculate the value of weight of a box and normal force it exerts and experienced due to other bodies in the system.
A] Weight of 20kg box and normal force acting on it
Step 1 of 3
Concept:
Newton’s second law: The force Facts on mass m produces an acceleration a in the object.
Newton’s third law: For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.
