AP Physics 1 › Normal Force and Weight
How will the normal force exerted by a chair on an astronaut differ when the rocket is on the launchpad or when it is blasting off?
A block of iron with mass 10kg is sitting on an incline that has an angle of 30 degrees above horizontal. What is the normal force on the block of iron?
What is the normal force of a block resting on a table?
Consider the following system:
If the normal force on the block is and the angle of the slope is
, what is the mass of the block?
What is the normal force acting on a book with
pressing down on it?
What is the normal force of a block resting on a ramp,
?
Consider the following system:
If the block travels down the slope at a constant speed and the coefficient of kinetic friction is , what is the angle of the slope?
A block remains stationary on the ground. Assuming that the acceleration due to gravity,
, is
, and that the only forces acting on the block are the force of gravity and normal force, what is the value of the normal force exerted by the ground on the block?
Determine the gravitational constant on a newly discovered planet, Planet X, if it exerts
of force on a
piece of rock. on the surface.
An object with a mass of 10kg is resting on a horizontal table. What is the normal force acting on the object?
