(one newton is roughly equal to the force exerted by the weight of an
apple).


Would that be a Golden Delicious or Granny Smith?



Hee hee...

uhhhhhhh.....

Here we go.

RESPECTING the dumping in Canada of fresh, whole, Delicious, Red Delicious and Golden Delicious apples, originating in or exported from the United States of America.

"Domestic apples are graded under the Canada Agricultural Products Act as Canada Extra Fancy, Canada Fancy and Canada Commercial. Some provinces also have their own grading standards, for example, B.C. Extra Fancy. In the United States, fresh apples are graded as U.S. Extra Fancy and U.S. Fancy. In addition, some states have their own grading standards, for example, Washington Extra Fancy and Washington Fancy." "Apples are also sized for the fresh market. The size will determine the number of apples that can be layered in a carton. A count size of 113 means that there are 113 apples in a tray pack or cell pack carton weighing about 42 lbs. The most common count sizes are 72, 80, 88, 100, 113, 125 and 138."

So what grade do you want?
lol

Wiki answers tells me...

"What does the average granny smith apple weigh?
The answer is 140 grams."

That's about 0.3 pounds or about 1 ST to move 18, and between 7 and 8 ST to move the 42 lb case of them.

Then again... wasn't it a McIntosh that concked old Izzy? Wouldn't that be the standard?
lol
