Question

A shopper in a supermarket pushes a loaded
37 kg cart with a horizontal force of 12 N.
The acceleration of gravity is 9.81 m/s2 .
a) Disregarding friction, how far will the
cart move in 3.8 s, starting from rest?
Answer in units of m

Answer 1

gravity has noting to do with it if no friction.

a = F/m = 12/37

d = (1/2)(12/37)(3.8)^2

Answer 2
