14. Saeed is pulling a 6 kg heavy rock with an upward force of 40 N but does not succeed to lift it up. What is the magnitude of the normal force on the rock?

Sagot :

Answer:

58.8 N

Explanation:

The normal force is calculated as equal to the perpendicular component of the gravitational force.

Thus; N = mg

We are given m = 6 kg

Thus;

N = 6 × 9.8

N = 58.8 N

Thus, magnitude of normal force on the rock = 58.8 N
