    Explanation:

    Fapp+mg = ma

    Fapp = applied force

    mg = reactional force

    g = acceleration due to gravity

    Where g = 9.8m/s^2 a = 5 m/s2, Fapp = 1000N.

    1000N = ma + mg

    1000N = m (a+g)

    1000N = m (5+9.8)

    1000N = m*14.8

    m = 1000:14.8

    m = 67.56kg.

    Hence the mass of the wagon will be 67.56kg
