Option B is correct: Rolling the box up an inclined plane on a cart.

When using the inclined, Ellen needs to overcome frictional force and the weight component of the box along the ramp which will be less than the total weight of the heavy box. Now, in sliding and rolling the weight of the heavy box along the ramp will be same but the difference will come in the type of the frictional force. Since, the rolling friction is less than the sliding friction. Hence, less force will be required when the box is rolled up an inclined plane on a cart.

According to Newton's Second Law of Motion :

The Force acting on an Object is equal to Product of Mass of the Object and Acceleration produced due to the Force.

:\implies  Force acting = Mass of the Object × Acceleration

Given : Force = 50 newton and Mass of the Object = 10 kg

Substituting the respective values in the Formula, we get :

:\implies  50 N = 10 kg × Acceleration

:\implies \mathsf{Acceleration = \dfrac{50\;N}{10\;kg}}

:\implies Acceleration of the Object = 5 m/s²
