  1. Friction Section Review

  2. 1. What is Friction? • A. a force creating motion • B. a force of motion • C. a force opposing motion • D. velocity

  3. ANSWER • C. A force opposing motion

  4. 2. What are two factors that determine the amount of friction? • A. the force and roughness of the surfaces • B. hills and valleys and the roughness of the surfaces • C. the force and how much surface comes n contact • D. the force and weight exerted on the surfaces.

  5. ANSWER • A. the force and roughness of the surfaces.

  6. 3. What kind of friction takes place between moving surfaces? • a. kinetic • b. static • c. smooth • d. rough

  7. ANSWER • A. Kinetic

  8. 4. What type of kinetic friction is used to write with a pencil? • a. static • b. sliding • c. rolling • d. smooth

  17. ANSWER • B. car tires moving your car forward.

  18. 9. What would happen if you tried to walk without friction? • a. You would slip and fall. • b. You would get lost. • c. You would change direction. • d. You would go slower.

  19. ANSWER • A. you would slip and fall

  20. 10. How do lubricants affect friction? • a. increases friction • b. decreases friction • c. increases force • d. decreases force

  21. ANSWER • B. decrease friction
