To determine which ball requires the strongest force to lift, we need to consider the mass of each ball rather than just size or material amount. Generally, the weight of an object (which determines the force required to lift it) is directly related to its mass.
- Soccer Ball: Typically has a mass around 410-450 grams.
- Beach Ball: Generally is very lightweight, often made from thin plastic and can weigh around 100-200 grams.
- Baseball: Usually has a mass of about 145 grams.
- Golf Ball: Typically weighs around 45 grams.
Based on their masses, the soccer ball, which has the greatest mass, would require the strongest force to lift. Therefore, the correct statement is:
The soccer ball requires the strongest force to lift because it has the most mass.
