Answer:
T = 4.905[N]
Explanation:
In order to solve this problem we must perform a sum of forces on the vertical axis.
∑Fy = 0
We have two forces acting only, the weight of the body down and the tension force T up, as the body does not move we can say that it is system is in static equilibrium, therefore the sum of forces is equal to zero.
![T-m*g=0\\T=0.5*9.81\\T=4.905[N]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=T-m%2Ag%3D0%5C%5CT%3D0.5%2A9.81%5C%5CT%3D4.905%5BN%5D)
Force = (mass) x (acceleration)
Force = (18 kg) x (3 m/s²) = 54 newtons
As long as you continue pushing the cart with 54 newtons of force,
it will accelerate at 3 m/s².
At the instant you release it, or keep your hands on it but stop pushing,
it will stop accelerating. It'll continue forward at the speed it had when
the 54 newtons of force stopped.
