Part B: You are pushing a cart in grocery store at a constant velocity of 2.00 m/s in the straight ahead direction. A retail worker in a hurry rushes by and accidentally shoves the cart with a force of 420 N directly to the right. You immediately supply a counter force to keep the cart rolling in the ORIGINAL (straight ahead) direction. What force (magnitude and direction) did you supply to keep the cart moving straight ahead? You should not need to do any calculation for this problem.
