Front

Which of the following is NOT TRUE about friction: Friction is a force that acts in the opposite direction of motion, Friction slows objects down, There is no friction on earth, Friction on carpet is greater than friction on a bare floor?

Back

There is no friction on earth.

Front

In order for an object to speed up, the direction of the force is: in any direction, in the same direction as the object's motion, in the opposite direction of the object's motion?

Back

In the same direction as the object's motion.

Front

What is the definition of force?

Back

A push or pull that can cause an object to move or change its motion.

Front

What is the difference between speed and velocity?

Back

Speed is how fast an object is moving, while velocity includes both speed and direction.

Front

What is friction?

Back

A force that opposes the motion of an object.

Front

How does friction affect motion?

Back

Friction slows down or stops the motion of objects.

Front

What happens to an object's motion when a force is applied in the opposite direction?

Back

The object slows down or may stop.
