(a) The net force on the shopping cart is zero.
(b) The the force of friction on the shopping cart is 25 N.
(c) When same force is applied to the shopping cart on a wet surface, it will move faster.
<h3>Net force on the shopping cart</h3>
The net force on the shopping cart is calculated as follows;
F(net) = F - Ff
where;
- F is the applied force
- Ff is the frictional force
ma = F - Ff
where;
- a is acceleration of the cart
- m is mass of the cart
at a constant velocity, a = 0
0 = F - Ff
F(net) = 0
F = Ff = 25 N
Net force is zero, and frictional force is equal to applied force.
<h3>On wet surface</h3>
Coefficient of kinetic friction of solid surface is greater than that of wet surface.
Since frictional force limit motion, when the frictional force is smaller, the object tends to move faster.
Thus, the cart will move faster on a wet surface due to decrease in friction.

Work in general is given by W=F·d where F is the force vector and d is the displacement vector. The dot symbol is the dot product which is a measure of how parallel two vectors are. It can be replaced by the cosine of the angle between the two vectors and the vectors replaced by their magnitudes. If F and d are parallel then the angle is zero and the cosine is unity. So in this case work can be defined as the product of the magnitudes of the force and distance:
W=Fd
Please mark brainliest you answer is B).
