... Weight—the Force of Gravity; and the Normal Force An object at rest must have no net force on it. If it is sitting on a table, the force of gravity is still there; what other force is there? The force exerted perpendicular to a surface is called the normal force. It is exactly as large as needed to ...

... these forces. In each case the tension force of the cord attached to the salami must be the same in magnitude as the weight of the salami because the salami is not accelerating. Thus the scale reading is mg, where m is the mass of the salami. Its value is (11.0 kg) (9.8 m/s2) = 108 N. 19. (a) Since ...

... The Atwood’s machine is driven by a net force equal in magnitude to the weight difference between the two mass hangers. You will vary the two masses, m1 and m2, but you will keep the total mass constant. As you move plastic washers from m2 to m1, you will use a photogate to measure the acceleration ...

An air molecule at a low elevation has a lot of air molecules above it, and their weight is pressing down on it. This means that it is being squeezed into a smaller space and pushed closer to ...

Impulse, momentum, and center of mass
... Clearly, the total change in momentum for the system is zero, and this derivation works regardless of whether or not the magnets began at rest. So internal forces like the one shown above cannot change the momentum of a system. If the sum of the external impulses also adds to zero, then the system c ...
