A book sits on a table. You press downwards on the book. The book does not move. Answer the following questions about the situation.a. Draw a force diagram for the book. Attach this diagram to #8 as a document or picture. If you can't attach a diagram, list the directionof each force on the book and the object causing it.b. Is one of those forces bigger than the others? If so, explain why. If not, explain why not.c. For EACH force you listed in a), write down the partner force to that force. Make sure to also include which way each partner forcepoints.
