Answer:
- B. Antonio is applying a 1-pound force to hold the 1-pound bag.
- E. The mass of the bag in his left hand is less than the mass of the bag in his right hand.
Explanation:
In order for one to carry something, they need to be exerting a force that is equal to the weight of the object. For Antonio therefore to hold the 1-pound bag, he needs to apply a 1-pound force.
Pounds measure the mass of an object. On his left hand Antonio has 1 pound and on the right he has 2. He is therefore carrying more mass on his right hand than on his left.
