Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To understand why a horse continues to apply a force to move a cart at a constant speed, we can break down the explanation into a few key steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Constant Speed**: - When an object moves at a constant speed, it means that the velocity of the object is not changing. This implies that the net force acting on the object is zero according to Newton's First Law of Motion. 2. **Forces Acting on the Cart**: ...
