Bonita Cart Bonita is pulling a cart to the right. She does not realize that the cart is tied to a wall on the left. The cart does not move. Bonita has a mass of 55 kg. The cart has a mass of 36 kg. Bonita is pulling the cart with a constant force of 272 newtons. Calculate the magnitude of the force (in units of newtons) that the cart exerts on Bonita. Note that the magnitude of a force is a positive quantity.

A cart of mass 0.85 kg is on a track, connected by a string over a pulley to a hanging mass of 0.1 kg. A friction pad is attached to the bottom of the cart, and you push the cart so that it first moves toward the sensor, then away from the motion sensor. Assuming the magnitude of the force of friction remains constant throughout the entire motion of the cart, the magnitude of the net acceleration of the cart is which of the following? a. larger when the cart is moving towards the motion sensor b. larger when the cart is moving away from the motion sensor c. the magnitude of the acceleration cannot be predicted
