ANSWER

Step-by-step explanation

We have three forces acting upon the cart. One is the gravity force, which is perpendicular to the ground. Then we have the normal force because of the cart's contact with the surface, which is perpendicular to the surface; and finally, we have the air resistance, which is opposite to the cart's motion - this force "wants" to stop the cart from moving.
