Agirl picks up a bag of apples that are at rest on the floor. how dose the force the girl applies compare to the force of gravity acting on the apples

When the bag of apples are on the floor, the force of gravity is equal to the force applied in the upward direction.

But when the girl picks up the bag of apples, she applies a force on the bag of apples in the upward direction greater than that of the gravitational force.

Explanation:

Gravitational force for an object is always constant at a specific point. When an object is in the state of rest, there is an equal force opposite to the direction of Gravitational Force.

Now, to lift an object upwards, an external force must be applied that is greater than the force of gravitation.

So, when the girl picks up the bag of apples,

Gravitational Force < Force applied by the girl to lift the bag.

the box does not move because you need to use a force greater than 300 n. you are only using 50 n. it needs to at least be 301 n for the box to move because then it is an unbalanced force and it will move the way that the greater force is pushing it. if you use only 300 n it will be a balanced force and will not move because the force you are exerting on the   box is the same as its force.

hope this !

im sorry if i went too in depth, i am going to include a link to a video on khan academy that will explain this.   hope that you like the video and that it explains more in detail to you.

that is the link.

gpe = mass x gravity constant x height or… gpe = mgh

where… mass: measured in kilograms (kg)

gravity: gravity constant on earth = 10.00 m/s2

height: measured in meters (m)

gpe: measured in joules (j) or kilojoules (kj)

how do you solve gpe?

gravitational potential energy (gpe) is the energy an object has because of its position above the. ground.

gpe = mass x gravity constant x height or… gpe = mgh.
