Calculating Force and Motion

What is a force that opposes motion between two surfaces?

• friction
• acceleration
• velocity
• motion

The picture of the position vs. time graph shows an object that is...

• accelerating/speeding up
• moving at a constant speed 
• not moving 
• accelerating/slowing down.
