Question

WHAT IS THE TOTAL NORMAL FORCE ACTING ON A SURFACE ​

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation: Normal force is defined as the force that a surface exerts on an object. If the object is at rest, net force on the object is equal to zero; therefore, the downward force (weight) must be equal to the upward force (normal force). Since weight acts in the downward direction it will be negative.
