A boy hold an apple. Why doesn't gravity cause the apple to fall to the

ground?

The force of his hand pushes up on the apple with
equal magnitude to the force of gravity, which pulls
down on the apple. The two forces are balanced,
so the apple doesn't fall.
The force of his hand pushes up on the apple with
greater magnitude than the force of gravity, which
pulls down on the apple. The two forces are
unbalanced, so the apple doesn't fall.
