How much support force does a table exert on a book that weighs 15 N when the book is placed on the table?

15 N

Explanation:

According to Newton's third law of motion, to every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. This reaction is equal in magnitude to the force acting but in an opposite direction.

Now, if the book weighs 15 N, an opposite equal force will be: N = -15 N

But the magnitude of this will be the absolute value which is 15N.

explanation:

physics means: "the branch of science concerned with the nature and properties of matter and energy. the subject matter of physics, distinguished from that of chemistry and biology, includes mechanics, heat, light and other radiation, sound, electricity, magnetism, and the structure of atoms."
