Friction and motion: Why do moving objects slow down? ... (Probably not.) Why not? Maybe the net force is not zero. Maybe there is a force tending to make it slow down. Can you measure this "friction" force? ... Place a sandbag on the cart. What is the friction force now? (Go through a complete analysis to demonstrate that...
