Suppose you drop a book. As the book is falling to the ground, which of the following statements is true?A. The magnitude of the force that the Earth exerts on the book is larger than the magnitude of the force that the book exerts on the Earth B. Because the book is in free fall, there is no force between the Earth and book. C. The magnitude of the force that the Earth exerts on the book is smaller than the magnitude of the force that the book exerts on the Earth D. The magnitude of the force that the Earth exerts on the book is the same as the magnitude of the force that the book exerts on the Earth



Answer :

The amount of force that the Earth applies to the book is more than the amount of force that the Earth applies to the book. There is no force holding the book to the Earth because it is falling freely.

What is force?
An external force is an agent that has the power to alter the resting or moving state of a body. It has a direction as well as a magnitude. The application of force is the point at which load is exerted, and the direction in which the forces are applied is known as that of the direction of the force. A spring balance can be used to calculate the Force. Newton is the SI unit of force (N).

The amount of force that the Earth applies to the book is less than the amount of force that the Earth applies to the book. While the table is exerting an upward response force on the book, the force that the Earth exerts on it is the same as the force that the book exerts on the Earth. The book doesn't move since the forces are equal and in opposition to one another.
