Draw the free diagram of an apple with a 1N weight rests on a table that exerts a norma force of 1N.Find what is the net force and normal force?
To draw the free body diagram of an apple with a 1N weight resting on a table, we need to consider the forces acting on the apple. In this case, there are two forces to consider: the weight of the apple and the normal force exerted by the table.
1. Weight Force (Gravitational Force) - The weight of an object is the force with which it is pulled towards the center of the Earth due to gravity. It can be calculated using the formula: weight = mass * acceleration due to gravity. In this case, the weight of the apple is 1N.
2. Normal Force - The normal force is the force exerted by a surface to support the weight of an object resting on it. It acts perpendicular to the surface. In this case, as the apple is resting on the table, the normal force exerted by the table is also 1N.
To determine the net force acting on the apple, we need to consider the vector sum of all the forces acting on it. Since the weight and the normal force have the same magnitude but act in opposite directions (one downwards and the other upwards), the net force will be the difference between them.
Net Force = Weight Force - Normal Force
Net Force = 1N - 1N = 0N
Hence, the net force acting on the apple is 0N, as the weight force is balanced by the normal force.
