Question

Create an relevant equilibrium expression for the example.

add in an ICE chart if possible.

1) An example of equilibrium in everyday life is a book on a table at rest. There are two forces acting upon the book. Remember, a force is "the strength or power applied to an object. Gravity: Pushing down Friction: Pushing up Here the weight of the book and the reaction force exerted by the table on the book cancel each other. Since these two forces (gravity and the table) are equal and in opposite directions, they balance each other. The book is said to be at equilibrium and it does not fall. Le Chatelier's Principle The two forces on the book that is, the weight of the book is equal and opposite to the frictional force that is the reaction force produced by the weight of the book which lets the book stay at its place and the book is said to be at equilibrium. When the weight of the book increases, the equilibrium is disturbed and the system tends to reach a new equilibrium by increasing the opposing force that is, the reaction force (frictional force) in the same amount such that the two forces again balances each other and the book does not fall.
