Imagine that you are holding a book weighing 4 $\mathrm{N}$ at rest on the palm of your hand. Complete the following sentences: (a) A downward force of magnitude 4 $\mathrm{N}$ is exerted on the book
If you are lowering a book weighing 5.0 N by applying an upward force of 3.0 N on the book, the magnitude of the normal force on your hand due to the book is: 3.0 N 8.0 N 2.0 N 5.0 N
