A 55 g soapstone cube--a whisky stone--is used to chill a glass of whisky. Soapstone has a density of 3000 kg/m3, whisky a density of 940 kg/m3. What is the approximate normal force of the bottom of the glass on a single stone?

Answer:

[tex]N=0.37N[/tex]

Explanation:

Mass [tex]m=55g=>0.055kg[/tex]

Soapstone Density [tex]\rho_s=3000kg/m^2[/tex]

Whisky Density [tex]\rho_w=940kg/m^2[/tex]

Generally the equation for Force is mathematically given by

 [tex]F=U+N[/tex]

Therefore

 [tex]N=m*g-(\frac{m}{\rho_s})*\rho_w*g[/tex]

 [tex]N=0.055*9.81 - {(\frac{0.055}{3000})*940*9.81}[/tex]

 [tex]N=0.37N[/tex]
