The problem says that the ground is level, so the only force moving the mower would be from Stacey.
(Friction and gravity would keep the mower in one place.)
Page 39 # 8-Answer in the box at the bottom of the page,
The object moves 3 meters in 5 seconds, stops for about 6 seconds, then moves another 3 meters in about 4 seconds, stops again for 5 seconds, finally the object goes 6 meters back to where it started in under 10 seconds.

3. The box accelerated up to 20m/s. The skateboard remained constant and did not slow down after force was removed
5. The box accelerated quickly to 20m/s. Force was removed, skateboard did not slow down
6.Force needs to be applied in opposite direction to stop the box
8. The fridge accelerated to 20m/s slower. The motion of the skateboard did not slow down
9. Student measure the time it takes to accelerate the masses with the same force, then record the time it takes to move the present. With data collected, students can approximate the mass
10. Answers may vary: Ex: motion of skateboard did not change
11. Answers may vary: the large mass made it harder/effected the motion of the skateboard

Changing the surface will change the friction causing easier or more effort to slide past each other

1. Diagram should have a circle with an m in the middle and a connected arrow to the right with an F above the arrow.
2. Answers may vary: the force to the right is larger, causing the object to move right
3. Should show a free body diagram with net force to the right but less than F.
4. Should show a free body diagram with a force on the left that is twice as large as the force right. The net force will then be left half the original size.

5. The friction of the floor is pushing back. The friend needs to push with more force to cause an unbalance.
6. The boat will continue across the water for a long distance. Friction will eventually slow the boat to a stop
