What is the correct free body diagram of the broom?

A
Image with description A free body diagram with 4 force vectors. The first vector is pointing downward, labeled F Subscript g Baseline. The second is pointing right, labeled F Subscript p Baseline. The third vector is pointing upward, labeled F Subscript N Baseline. The fourth vector is pointing left, labeled F Subscript f. The upward vector is the same length as the downward vector. The right vector is the same length as the left vector.
B
Image with description A free body diagram with 3 force vectors. The first vector is pointing downward, labeled F Subscript g Baseline. The second vector is pointing right, labeled F Subscript p Baseline. The third vector is pointing upward, labeled F Subscript N Baseline. All three vectors are of equal length.
C
Image with description A free body diagram with 4 force vectors. The first vector is pointing downward, labeled F Subscript g Baseline. The second vector is pointing right, labeled F Subscript f Baseline. The third vector is pointing upward, labeled F Subscript N Baseline. The fourth vector is pointing up to the left, labeled F Subscript P Baseline.
D
Image with description A free body diagram with 4 force vectors. The first vector is pointing downward, labeled F Subscript g Baseline. The second vector is pointing left, labeled F Subscript f Baseline. The third vector is pointing upward, labeled F Subscript N Baseline. The fourth vector is pointing down to the right, labeled F Subscript P Baseline. All vectors are the same length.

A lab cart with a mass of 15 kilograms is moving with constant velocity, v , along a straight horizontal track. A student drops a 2 kilograms mass into it from directly above, and the cart continues moving. Which equation best represents the horizontal momentum in this situation?

A
15 v sub i plus 2 v sub f is equal to 15 times 0 plus 2 v sub i
B
15 times 0 plus 2 v sub i is equal to open paren 15 plus 2 close paren times v sub f
C
15 v sub i plus 2 times 0 is equal to open paren 15 plus 2 close paren times v sub f
D
15 v sub i plus 2 times 0 is equal to 15 v sub f plus 2 times 0

Which graph shows an object with constant acceleration?

A
Image with description A graph titled Velocity versus Time shows time in seconds on the x axis, numbered 0 to 5, and velocity in meters per second on the y axis, numbered 0 to 10. A line starts at (0, 10) and ends at (5, 0).
B
Image with description A graph titled Velocity versus Time shows time in seconds on the x axis, numbered 0 to 10, and velocity in meters per second on the y axis, numbered 0 to 50. A line starts at the origin and goes to (4, 40), then a line from (4, 40) to (9, 40) and a line from (9, 40) to (10, 0).
C
Image with description A graph titled Velocity versus Time shows time in seconds on the x axis, numbered 0 to 5, velocity in meters per second on the y axis, numbered 0 to 35. A curved line starts at the origin and arcs up to (4.3, 35).
D
Image with description A graph titled Velocity versus Time shows time in seconds on the x axis, numbered 0 to 5, and velocity in meters per second on the y axis, numbered 0 to 5. A line starts from (0, 5) continues to (2, 2.5) to (4, 2.5) and ends at (5, 5).
