A team of ferrets to pull a wagon would be about 6 - 8 ferrets

Yaks are used to pull the wagon, not put into it, but probably only two.
1. use ropes to pull the wagon. 2. use 12 oxen to pull the wagon.
False. Decreasing the mass of the wagon will not increase the force used to pull it. The force required to pull an object is dependent on its mass, so reducing the mass would actually decrease the force needed.
If the force preventing the wagon from moving is greater than the pull of the engine, the wagon will not move. If the force preventing movement is less than the pull of the engine, the wagon will move. If they are equal, the wagon will remain in place or move at a constant speed.
A wagon is one possibility.

Yes, reducing the mass of the wagon will decrease the force required to pull it. This is based on Newton's second law of motion, which states that force is directly proportional to mass. Therefore, decreasing the mass of the wagon will lower the force needed to move it.
The Conestoga wagon was heavier and therefore required a larger number of draft animals to pull it than the Prairie Schooner wagon.
It depends on the size of the wagon. Anywhere from one to over four oxen are used to pull a wagon.
