Karli · Answer 1

Answer: Because of the friction force acting directly on the bag.

Explanation:

The function of the wheels is diminish the effect of the friction force, when the friction pulls back, it makes the wheel rotate, and this force is not applied directly on the bag.

Now the wheels are not working, so now the friction is acting directly on the bag, this is why the mand finds more difficult to drag the bag.
