Question
- which forces would be drawn on a free body diagram for the apple sitting on the table below? applied force and gravity gravity, normal force, and friction gravity and normal force gravity, applied force, and normal force
Brief Explanations
The apple is at rest on the table. Gravity acts downward pulling the apple towards the Earth. The table exerts an upward normal force on the apple to balance the gravitational force. There is no applied force (no external push or pull) and no friction as there is no tendency for the apple to move relative to the table.
