In physics, a force is any interaction that, when unopposed, will change the motion of an object. A force can cause an object with mass to change its velocity, i.e., to accelerate. Force can also be described intuitively as a push or a pull. A force has both magnitude and direction, making it a vector quantity.

Answer 2

Answer:

I.  "It was bitterly cold, snow was falling and darkness was gathering"

   "In the cold and gloom a poor little girl walked bareheaded and barefoot"

    We can conclude that the weather was extremely cold as there was snow and it was the time of nightfall, and yet the little girl was barefooted. It is said that she was wearing her dead mother's slippers when she had left home. She ran across the street to escape two carriages that were being propelled very fast, it was at this time that she lost one of her slippers, while the other was with a boy who had run-off with it. This show that her family was poor as they could not afford for another pair.

    " She did not dare go home, for she had sold no matches..."

    " Her father would be sure to beat her..."

    The child is poor and motherless, she does not get any affection or love from her father but is sent out in the biting cold to sell matches. She becomes a victim of child labour and of physical abuse at the hands of her father. Her father has no care for her well-being. She prefers to sit in the snow rather that going home because of the fear of being beaten up by her father as she had not earned a single penny that day.

   " Oh, take me with you! I know you will disappear when the match is burnt out; you will vanish like the warm stove, the lovely roast goose and the great glorious christmas tree."

      The little girl hallucinates of her grandmother, the only one person who had ever been good to her and cared for her, but she was dead. This show her desperation and want to see her grandmother. She struck all of her remaining matches, fearing that her grandmother would disappear like the other visions she had.

      " She was evidently trying to warm herself" people said...

      At the end she was frozen to death, But she seems to be happier in her new home than she ever was on earth.
