Question

A horse continues to apply a force in order to move a cart with a constant speed explain why?

Answer 1

In order to move a cart with a constant speed the horse continues to apply the force to overcome friction between the cart and the ground

Answer 2

Explanation:

According to Newton's First Law a body remains in its state of motion or rest until an external force acts on it.

But in this case the horse has to continuously exert the force to move the cart, this is because the force of friction is acting against the motion of the cart which us opposing its motion.So the horse has to apply force to overcome this force of friction.
