Answer:

The wagon exerts a force of 21 Newtons

Step-by-step explanation:

Force is equal to mass times acceleration, a Newton being 1 kg×m/². As we're given both the mass and the acceleration, all we need to do is multiply them to find the force applied:

14 kg × 1.5m/s²

= 14 × 1.5 kg × m/s²

= 21 N
