Textbook Question
Chapter 16.1, Problem 2bTH
Consider a book on top of a level table while the book is being pressed straight down by a hand.
i. In the space below, draw a free-body diagram for the book. Label the forces as you did in the tutorial Forces.
ii. How do the forces exerted on the book in this case compare to the forces exerted on the book when the hand is not pushing? List any forces that are the same (i.e., same type of force, same direction, and same magnitude) in both cases. Make a separate list of forces that change (or are not present) when the hand is pressing down on the book.
iii. Is the magnitude of the weight equal to the magnitude of the normal force exerted by the table on the book? How can you tell?

Hey
1. May you please help me to draw a labelled free-body diagram of a stationary object of mass M on a rough surface inclined at an angle, (theta)
2. Lastly help me find different expressions for the magnitude of the Normal force using both x and y direction of the chosen set of axes from the situation above.
ASAP please!!
Draw (and upload) a free-body-diagram for block B under the conditions described in question 4 (immediately before this question). The only object in this diagram should be block B, and only forces appropriate for a free-body-diagram of block B should appear. All force vectors must be labeled with letters and subscripts as defined for this class.
Please include the free body diagram for this problem and provide right explanation
