    The minimum force required to move a body of  mass m vertically upward is

    A)  mg                                        

    B)  mg/2             

    C)  more than 2mg               

    D)  more than mg     

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

                     Weight of a body is mg, where m is mass, g the acceleration due to gravity. A body is balanced when a force applied is equal to its weight. Therefore, to lift it up, an additional force is required. Hence, the minimum force required is  \[(mg+ma)>mg\]which is greater than mg.
