Why force needed to start a cart is somewhat greater than force needed to keep moving with a uniform speed

Hiii there
Here is your answer
In order to get the cart moving, you need to overcome static friction.
Once the cart moves, the friction encountered between the floor and the cart is now called kinetic friction.
Static friction is what prevents an object from moving.
Kinetic friction slows the object while it is moving.
And since the coefficient of static friction is usually greater than the coefficient of kinetic friction, moving the cart requires a greater amount of force to be exerted than to keep it moving.
Hope it helps
