What is friction?

• A force that speeds up objects

• A force that pulls objects down

• A resistance force between two surfaces

• A measure of mass

How does surface roughness affect friction?

• Smoother surfaces have more friction

• Rougher surfaces have more friction

• All surfaces have the same friction

• Friction does not depend on the surface

What is mass?

• The speed of an object

• The amount of matter in an object

• The distance an object travels

• The force that pulls objects

Why is it harder to push a heavy box than a light box?

• Because of its speed

• Because of its mass

• Because of gravity

• Because of friction

How do you calculate speed?

• Speed = Distance + Time

• Speed = Distance - Time

• Speed = Distance / Time

• Speed = Time / Distance
