A stone is shown at rest on the ground. A. The vector shows the weight of the stone. Complete the vector diagram showing another vector that results in zero net force on the stone. B. What is the conventional name of the vector you have drawn?

A. To complete the vector diagram showing another vector that results in zero net force on the stone, you need to draw a vector equal in magnitude and opposite in direction to the weight vector. This vector is known as the support or normal force.

B. The conventional name of the vector you have drawn is the support or normal force.

To find the vector that results in zero net force on the stone, we need to consider Newton's First Law of Motion, which states that an object remains at rest or in uniform motion in a straight line unless acted upon by a net external force.

A. To have zero net force on the stone, we need to counteract the force of gravity acting on it. Therefore, we need to draw a vector that is equal in magnitude but opposite in direction to the weight vector of the stone. This new vector is called the "support force" or "normal force."

B. The conventional name for the vector we have drawn is the "normal force" or "support force." This force is exerted by a surface to support an object against gravity. It acts perpendicular to the surface and prevents the object from sinking into or passing through the surface.

Hello,

Here is what I came up with:

A) The vector pointing down is the weight from the stone on the Earth. To make the net force zero, you need to have an equally opposite force exerting itself on the stone, say the ground pushing its own force against the stone, the two forces would equally cancel each other out resulting in a net force of zero. The diagram will look like the arrow from the stone pointing downward and the arrow from the ground pointing upward.

B) The conventional name for the vector that you have drawn on that specific vector diagram would be a Vector Quantity.

I hope this helps :) I had this same question on my homework.

. You hold an apple over your head.

a. Identify all the forces acting on the apple and their
reaction forces.
b. When you drop the apple, identify all the forces
acting on it as it falls and the corresponding reaction
forces
