simultaneously on a cart?
answers:
The cart will move to the left.
There will be no movement.

When a force of 200 N is acting to the right and a force of 100 N is acting to the left on a cart, the net force acting on the cart can be calculated as follows:

Net force = Force to the right - Force to the left Net force = 200 N - 100 N = 100 N to the right

Since the net force is 100 N to the right, the cart will move to the right.

Therefore, the correct answer is: The cart will move to the right.
