To solve this exercise it is necessary to take into account the concepts related to Tensile Strength and Shear Strenght.
In Materials Mechanics, generally the bodies under certain loads are subject to both Tensile and shear strenghts.
By definition we know that the tensile strength is defined as

Where,
Tensile strength
F = Tensile Force
A = Cross-sectional Area
In the other hand we have that the shear strength is defined as

where,
Shear strength
Shear Force
Parallel Area
PART A) Replacing with our values in the equation of tensile strenght, then

Resolving for F,

PART B) We need here to apply the shear strength equation, then



In such a way that the material is more resistant to tensile strength than shear force.
I think that the shopping cart full of groceries has more inertia because it is the one with more tendency to do nothing or be still.
Your answer would be true. Because if we didn't have those pieces of evidence, we wouldn't know about a lot of the ancient civilizations that we know today without that. Small pieces of evidence like that can help us to determine how they lived, or what they used to do, or even what they ate.
Decibels I think that's the answer
Answer is A because the speed and velocity would change. Think of it as GTA, your going 30+ miles per hour and you take a left turn, the speed and velocity would change in an instant..
Hope this helped.
