Question

A wooden block of weight 60 N is placed on a table. The force exerted by the surface of the table on the block will be​

Answer 1

Answer:

• 60 N

Explanation:

Given:-

• Weight ,W = 60 N

To Find:-

• Force exerted by the surface of the table.

Solution:-

As we know that Weight is defined as the product of mass and acceleration due to gravity.

• W = mg

where,

• W denote Weight
• m denote mass
• g denote acceleration due to gravity.

Weight is also a force .

Here, the given Question is too easy the if you about

Newton's Third Law. Let's recall what Newton's Third Law State .

Newton's Third Law State that Every reaction has equal & opposite reaction .

The given statement say that the weight (force) of wooden block is 60 N . Therefore the force exerted by the surface of table is also 60 N. (According to Newton's Third Law of Motion).

Answer 2

Answer:

Given :-

• Weight of block = 60 N

To Find :-

Force exerted

Solution :-

As we know that

W = mg

Here,

W = Weight

M = Mass

G = Acceleration due to gravity

Newton Third Law :-

His third law states that every object has equal and opposite reaction.

Therefore :-

$\tt \: force \: = 60 \: N$
