  1. he has to overcome inertia


  2. Because he is starting from a dead stop

  3. An object at rest wants to stay at rest.

  4. The key words are momentum (which it doesn't have at the start), inertia (the load wants to stay still), and friction.

    You should post this on the physics board.

    =

  5. Because once the load is moving, momentum assists.
