Physics

If an object is on a flat surface and a force is applied upward, the normal force will decrease.

When a force is applied upward to an object resting on a flat surface, it effectively reduces the net force acting downwards.

The weight of the object (W) acts downwards, while the applied upward force acts upwards.

The normal force () can be calculated using the equation:
