Question

1. which was easier to push: the empty cart or the full cart? why do you think so? answer: 2. state newtons second law of motion. answer: i

Explanation:

Newton's second law states that force (F) is equal to mass (m) times acceleration (a), or F = ma. The empty cart has less mass. According to the law, for a given acceleration, a smaller - mass object requires less force to move. So, it is easier to push.

Answer:

1. The empty cart was easier to push because it has less mass. According to Newton's second law (F = ma), with a constant desired acceleration, a smaller mass requires less force to move.
2. Newton's second law of motion states that the acceleration of an object as produced by a net force is directly proportional to the magnitude of the net force, in the same direction as the net force, and inversely proportional to the mass of the object. Mathematically, F = ma, where F is the net force, m is the mass of the object, and a is the acceleration.
