You throw a 100-g apple upward. (a) While the apple is still in your hand (we'll call this period "the throw"), is the force that you exert on the apple more than, less than, or the same as the force that you exert on the apple when you are holding it at rest? (b) Support your answer with a motion diagram for the throw and a force diagram for one instant during the throw (c) Is the force that the apple exerts on you at this instant more than, less than, or the same as the force that you exert on the apple when you are holding it at rest? Explain your answer.
