Question

I need help finding the force on the system and the acceleration of the cart. The total mass of the cart and the hanging mass is 1000g. Thanks!

### Experimental Data: Cart and Hanging Mass System

#### Data Table

| **Mass of Cart** | **Hanging Mass** | **Force** | **Acceleration** |
|------------------|------------------|-----------|------------------|
| 800 g            | 200 g            |           |                  |
| 750 g            | 250 g            |           |                  |
| 550 g            | 450 g            |           |                  |
| 400 g            | 600 g            |           |                  |

#### Note
- The total mass is 1000 g between the cart and hanging mass.

#### Explanation
This table lists the data collected for a cart and hanging mass system. The masses of both the cart and the hanging mass are provided in grams (g). The table has columns for the resultant force and acceleration, which need to be filled in based on experimental or calculated data.

The note indicates that the sum of the cart mass and the hanging mass is consistently 1000 g for each experiment. This suggests that as the mass of the cart decreases, the mass of the hanging weight increases, maintaining a constant total mass across different trials.
