Question

why is a tensional or a normal force called a support force? need a complete explanation and understanding

Expert Solution
Check Mark
Step 1

Tensional or normal force is called support force as 

 We know when we placed a object or body on any surface Normal force is acting on body in order to support body's weight to surface .

Example: 

Book place on floor , normal force is acting on book that is equal to weight of book .
