Q:

What is a Contact Force and explain with an example?

Answer

A Contact force is a force applied to a body by another body that is in contact with it. Contact force acts on a point of direct contact between the two objects. This force can either be continuous as a continuous force or can be momentary in the form of an impulse. Contact force is governed by Newton’s Laws.


Examples :: Contact force is responsible for most of the interactions we experience in the daily life.


1. Writing your name with a pen, pushing a car up a hill, lifting an object, etc...


2. Kicking a ball, hammering a nail, etc...


are some of the everyday examples where contact forces are at work.


In the first case, the force is continuously applied by the person on the car or pen or an object while in the second case the force is delivered in a short impulse.


 


Contact forces are often decomposed into orthogonal components


one perpendicular to the surface in contact called the normal force, and


one parallel to the surface in contact, called the friction force.

Q:

Explain the concept of Reentrancy?

Answer

It is a useful, memory-saving technique for multiprogrammed timesharing systems. A Reentrant Procedure is one in which multiple users can share a single copy of a program during the same period. Reentrancy has 2 key aspects: The program code cannot modify itself, and the local data for each user process must be stored separately. Thus, the permanent part is the code, and the temporary part is the pointer back to the calling program and local variables used by that program. Each execution instance is called activation. It executes the code in the permanent part, but has its own copy of local variables/parameters. The temporary part associated with each activation is the activation record. Generally, the activation record is kept on the stack.


Note: A reentrant procedure can be interrupted and called by an interrupting program, and still execute correctly on returning to the procedure.

Another way is when an infectious microbe travels through the air after someone nearby sneezes or coughs.
