Is the force on the ground that exerts upon us called the normal force?

yes


What exerts force?

A force is a push or pull acting upon an object as a result of its interaction with another object. ie myself against a rock or my trying to pull the rock


What is the difference between magnets and electromagnets?

A magnet exerts magnetic force when 'at rest', or when it is not acted upon by any other force. An electromagnet exerts magnetic force only when energized by electricity, and is normally constructed from a ferrite core wrapped by an electric coil.


How is the term 'weight' defined in physics?

Weight is the force that gravity exerts upon a body in direct proportion to its mass.


What is the force on the ground of a 12kg acorn falling from a tree?

The impact force depends upon the height from which it has fallen (IE- its velocity upon impact), and the duration of impact (determined by the elasticity of the collision). However, the object exerts no force upon the ground *while* falling.


What determines the magnitude of the normal force?

The normal force if the force of one object holding up anothe. Ex. a block of wood on the ground. The normal force is the force applied to the wood to prevent it from sinking. In other words, it is the objects weight. W=mg, where W=weight, m=mass, g=force of gravity.


What is the name of the force that gives us grip?

Grip is a combination of pressure and friction. The more pressure one exerts upon an object the greater the friction and then the better grip one would have on the object in hand. Same goes for anything that can grip like tires, shoes, etc. Another thing that affects grip is the pattern of the surface applying the pressure, different patterns will exert the force differently.


What is the force called when one surface exerts on another when the two rub against each other?

Friction makes things (like soles) rub away


When you are running on a road you are acted upon by frictional force of the road.Is there another force of friction acting on you?

When you are running on a road ,you are acted upon by frictional force of the road.Is there another force of friction acting on you ? name and explain


How many Newton laws are there?

: 1. (Law of inertia): A body at rest remains at rest and a body in motion continues to move at a constant velocity unless acted upon by an external force. : 2. A force F acting on a body gives it an acceleration a which is in the direction of the force and has magnitude inversely proportional to the mass mof the body: . : 3. Whenever a body exerts a force on another body, the latter exerts a force of equal magnitude and opposite direction on the former. This is known as the weak law of action and reaction :
