Question

Thalia is drafting a plan to move a large, perfect sphere concrete sculpture that is in front of her office building. Describe the considerations Thalia would need to make if she was drafting a plan to move the sculpture.

Answer 1

Thalia would need to consider the mass, the weight (yes mass and weight are different), how she is going to move it, and how long it takes. 

I hope this help. Did anyone else think of Thalia Grace from the Percy Jackson series. No, just me. 

Answer 2

Thalia would need to consider that the sculpture's inertia is keeping the object in place. Newton's first law applies to this situation. The inertia would have to be overcome to enable the sculpture to move, but the inertia would also keep the sculpture moving after its movement was started. The force that is required to move the sculpture would depend on the mass and acceleration at which Thalia wanted the sculpture to move. Finally, any force applied to the sculpture would be resisted by the sculpture in an equal and opposite manner.

this is a sample answer
