Why is it not a good idea to reduce the friction involved when moving an object up an inclined plane? Choose 2

Friction counteracts the force of gravity that would otherwise pull the object back down the inclined plane.

Reduced friction would result in a greater work input would be needed to move the object up the inclined plane.

Reduced friction will make it slide easier.

What is the average speed of this object?

The object travels 78 meters in 6 seconds. Therefore, its average speed is 78 m/6 s = 13 m/s.

The object travels 78 meters in 6 seconds. Therefore, its average speed is 78 m x 6 s = 468 m/s.

The object travels 78 meters in 6 seconds. Therefore, its average speed is 6 s/78 m = 0.769 m/s

This object travels 78 meters in 6 seconds. What additional information is needed to know its velocity?

The direction in which the object is moving .

The material the object is made of,

What will happen to a book placed in a table that is raised at an angle?

The book will be held in place by static friction until the angle of the table becomes too great. The book will then slide off.

The book will be held in place by potential energy until the angle of the table becomes too great. The book will then slide off.

The book will be held in place by kinetic energy until the angle of the table becomes too great. The book will then stop moving.
