(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.

Answer:
The last statement is false.
Explanation:
Photons (Electromagnetic radiation) are released when electrons drop from a higher energy lever to a lower energy level. Therefore the opposite insinuated by the last statement is wrong.
Answer:
Opposite to the direction that you are pulling
Explanation:
Static friction acts in the opposite direction to the acceleration.
Kinetic friction acts in the opposite direction to the velocity.
Oxidation number is the charge.
