Question

you give a shopping cart a job down the aisle the cart is full of groceries and has a mass of 18 kilograms the cart accelerates at a rate of 3 m/s how much force did you exert on the cart

Answer 1

                 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.

Answer 2

The answer is 6 because 6 times 3 equal 18
