because there is no reaction force which is usually provided by friction which is absent on ice

Answer:
A Cart if pushed while standing on ice it won't move as the friction which is needed for the cart to move is missing in case of an icy road.
Explanation:
According to Newton's third law of motion, "for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction". In simpler words, it means that when we push any object, the object is supposed to push back with an equal and opposite force. In case of a cart on ice,
- when we push the cart, the wheels don't get the equal reaction to move forward.
- Ice surface is not good enough to provide the friction it needs to move, hence it stays still.
Thus, we can conclude that a Cart if pushed on a icy surface, it won't move.
