    OK gravity is a force acting on it
    And I understand Newtons laws applying to this a
    The eraser will stay there until acted upon by something else.
    But does the ledge play a part... is it a force? I mean if the moleculed inside me are a force at equilibrium with outside pressure? I fear I am overthinking this. Pleasr help
