Question

A 2 N apple is hanging from a branch. What is the action force? A. the net force B. the normal force C. a 2 N upward force D. a 2 N downward force

Answer 1

Answer: a downward force

Answer 2

2 N downward force

Step-by-step explanation:

Since apple is hanging,so due to gravity,according to Newton second law,gravitational effect is due to the weight of the object and is acting downward.So action force is due to gravitational effects.

Hence,2 N will acting in downward direction due to gravity.
