Friction between the desk and the floor acts as an unbalanced force to stop the desk from sliding. As the desk moves, the force of friction opposes the direction of its motion, eventually bringing it to a stop.


What is the normal force acting on a book that is sitting on a desk?

The normal force acting on a book sitting on a desk is equal in magnitude and opposite in direction to the force of gravity pulling the book downward. This force prevents the book from falling through the desk and is what keeps the book in place.

What force makes the pen droke onto the floor from rolling off the desk?

Gravity is the force that causes the pen to fall from the desk to the floor when it rolls off. Gravity acts as an attractive force between objects with mass, pulling the pen towards the Earth's surface.


Why would work be done if the book fell from the top of the desk to the floor?

work would be done if the book fell from the top of the desk to the floor because there has been some force through which the book fell down and therefore the book got displaced from his initial position . hence the work is done in this situation because it has a force and a displacement which is essential for the work to be done.

When standing on the floor does the floor exert an apward force against your fit how much force does exert why you are not move forward by the floor?

Yes, the force exerted by the floor on our feet is equal to the force that our feet exerted on the floor, or it just depends on your weight, If you are heavier than the normal. When you stand, the longer the time you stand, the more pain you feel on your feet. And we can't be move upward by the force that the floor exerted on our feet because of the force of our weight that keeps us on the ground, and also because of gravity.


What force keeps our feet sliding when walking or running?

frictional force which is generated due to interlocking of minute roughness of slipper / shoes/foot with those of floor
