A car is parked at rest on a horizontal road. The upward force of the road on the car (the normal force) is the same size as the downward pull of gravity A car is parked at rest on a horizontal road. The upward force of the road on the car (the normal force) is the same size as the downward pull of gravity Because of Newton's first law. Because they are an action/reaction pair. Both of the above. None of the above. Some other reason.

Option A - Because of Newton's first law of motion

Explanation:

This is as a result of Newton's first law of motion.

Newton's first law of motion which is also referred to as the law of inertia states that; an object at rest will remain at rest and an object in motion will remain in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless it's acted upon by an unbalanced force.

In this question, the car is at rest and it doesn't move because the upward force of the car is balanced by the downward pull of gravity. It can only move when an external force is applied to it. This fulfills Newton's first law of motion.

i just did an experiment like this in my science class. also the answer is yes, it will get separated because they are two opposites meaning if they are opposite they can not attract.

hope this .!
