What is the correct order upward from earths surface?
Troposphere, Stratosphere, Mesosphere, Thermosphere, and Exosphere - layers of the atmosphere :)
Is upward thrust the same as normal force?
No. Upward means... well, upward. "Normal" in this context means "perpendicular" or "at a right angle" - i.e., at a right angle to some surface you are considering. This may happen to be upward as well, but it can be just about any direction.
An object at rest on the earths surface has two forces acting upon it what are they and why doesnt the object move?
The two forces acting on the object are gravity pulling it downward and the normal force pushing up against gravity. These forces are equal in magnitude, resulting in a net force of zero and causing the object to remain at rest due to Newton's first law of motion.
What is a force exerted on an object which is perpendicular to the surface of contact?
A force exerted on an object perpendicular to the surface of contact is called the normal force. It is the force that acts vertically upward or downward between an object and a surface, balancing out the force of gravity acting on the object.
What is the upward force on an object?
The upward force on an object is a measure of the force exerted on it in the opposite direction to gravity. It is often called the normal force and counteracts the downward pull of gravity to keep the object from falling through a surface.
Is support force a contact force?
Yes, support force is a contact force. It occurs when an object rests on a surface and the surface exerts an upward force to counteract the object's weight, preventing it from falling.
A movie is made showing successive frames for an object accelerating downward. If the sequence is run backward would the object accelerate upward or downward?
UPWARD UPWARD UPWARD
If the air moves faster above an object does the pressure push the object upward or downward?
upward
How does buoyancy help a submerging float?
Buoyancy is the upward force exerted by a fluid that helps to support or lift an object placed in it. When a submerged object such as a float experiences buoyancy, it creates an upward force that counteracts the downward force of gravity, allowing the object to float or maintain its position at the surface of the fluid.
These are created when sections of the earths surface are folded and thrust upward?
Mountain ranges are created when sections of the Earth's surface are folded and thrust upward due to tectonic plate movements. The pressure exerted by these movements causes the rocks to deform and bend, eventually leading to the formation of mountain ranges.
What is an object at rest on the surface of the earth is experiencing?
An object at rest on the surface of the Earth is experiencing the force of gravity pulling it downward, as well as the normal force acting upward from the surface to support its weight. These two forces are balanced in a state of equilibrium, resulting in the object staying still.
An object is falling down and hits the ground which law of physics describes the force which make the object stop?
Newton's Third Law of Motion For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. The object pushes downward on the surface, the surface pushes upward on the object. When the net force is zero, the object comes to rest.
