A downward force of 18-N is applied to a book sitting on a table. The table where the book is placed provides a static friction with a maximum value of 20-N and Kinetic friction of roughly 12-N. If the book has a mass of 3.0-kg, what is the acceleration of the book?

High schoolphysics 5+3 pts a neon light consists of a glass tube with metal wires at each end. when connected to a high-voltage source, the gas glows. if a fly lands on the glass tube, what will most likely happen? a) the fly will not feel a shock because the glass conducts any free electrons back into the gas. b) electrons will flow directly from the metal wires along the glass and shock the fly. c) the fly will not feel a shock because the glass insulates it from the electrons in the gas and the metal. d) electrons that are moving through the gas will be conducted through the glass and shock the fly.

When you push downward on a book at rest on a table, you feel an upward force. does this force depend on friction? defend your answer.
