A block is first placed on its long side and then on its short side on the same inclined plane. The block slides down the plane on its short side but remains at rest on its long side because ___.
the short side is smoother
the frictional force is less because the contact area is less
the center of gravity is higher in the second case
the normal force is less in the second case
