The m in the equation for density is
in italic type, meaning that it stands
for mass rather than for meters. In
general, the symbols for units such
as meters (m), seconds (s), or
kelvins (K) appear in regular type,
while those for variables such as
mass (m), volume (V), and time (t)
appear in italics.

As the shopping trip progressed, the cart increased in mass from 0 kg to 10 kg. Which argument below supports Raymond's claim that it was more difficult to push the 10 kg cart as opposed to the empty cart. O As the cart decreased in mass, Raymond had to use more force to push the cart. O As the cart increased in mass, Raymond had to use more force to push the cart. O As Raymond continued to push the cart during the duration of the trip, he became tired which made it more difficult to push the cart. O As Raymond continued to push the cart during the duration of the trip, friction began to build up on the wheels causing the cart to be more difficult to push.arrow_forward
