As an apple falls from a tree, it feels a downward gravitational force from Earth. Which of the following statements is true? If there is more than one true statement, you must select all of them. (Ignore any air resistance forces. Any comparison of forces or accelerations is referring to the magnitudes.) Earth feels an upward gravitational force from the apple The gravitational force from Earth on the apple is larger than the gravitational force from the apple on Earth The acceleration of Earth is non-zero The apple experiences a larger acceleration than Earth None of the other statements is true

Antonio is holding a 1-pound bag of apples in his left hand and a 2-pound bag of apples in his right hand. Which sentences about this situation are true? The force caused by gravity is the same on each bag. Antonio is applying a 1-pound force to hold the 1-pound bag. Antonio must apply a greater force to hold the 1-pound bag than the 2-pound bag. The acceleration due to gravity is greater on the 2-pound bag. The mass of the bag in his left hand is less than the mass of the bag in his right hand.
