Answer :
Final answer:
The work done by the gravitational force on the weight inside the shopping cart is 0 J due to the perpendicular orientation of the force and displacement. Correct option is a .
Explanation:
The work done by the gravitational force on the weight inside the shopping cart is 0 J. This is because the gravitational force acts vertically downward, while the displacement is horizontal, perpendicular to the force. Therefore, the angle between the force of gravity and the displacement is 90 degrees, making the work done by gravity 0 J.
