how does a table "know" to push upwards with exactly the right
force to support a book and not drop it or throw it into the air.
Notice how sometimes if you drop a book on to the table, the tablelittle
doesn't "know" exactly what the "right" force is and throws the book a
bit back into the air. Perhaps it's because it hasn't had time to get........ and if it's a real heavy book, a flimsy table will miscalculate
acquainted with the book. Its big cousin, a trampoline net, makes
this sort of mistake all the time.
