please explain the formula in the picture and the symbols used.
Since the chair is not moving vertically, the acceleration vertically is 0. This means that: Normal - mg = 0 Normal = mg [NOTE: The fact that mg is downward has been explicitly included by t normal minus mg. Thus you are finding the magnitude of the normal fa the magnitude of the weight.] Using the diagram above and the mass o from question 1, what is the normal force acting on the chair? |Normal|=|mg|=
