Jamal moved his box to storage, but Jude could not move his.
Reason: Jamal's upward force (60 N) exceeds the weight (50 N), giving a net upward force of 10 N so the box accelerates upward. Jude's upward force (45 N) is less than the weight, so there's a net downward force of 5 N and he cannot lift the box.
