You are pulling a wagon with a mass10kg and it’s moving forward at a constant rate. Your friend gets into the wagon and it’s slows down. What can you do to get the wagon moving faster?

Step-by-step explanation:

Without changing the constant speed, your friend can empty the contents of the wagon, or decrease the overall rate, or the terrain the wagon is traveling on, all of these would increase the wagon's speed. Also, you could try applying a heavier pulling force, like using a horse instead of yourself, or you and a horse to get going faster.

Hope this helps!
