Friction _____________ motion

a)

Works in the same direction as

b)

Opposes

c)

Has not effect on

d)

Pulls against

2.

True or False: objects that are smooth have LESS friction than objects that are rough

a)

TRUE

b)

FALSE

3.

When you jump out of a plane to go skydiving 🪂 you thankfully have a parachute so you can safely land 🛫. Which answer choice explains why the parachute helps you land safely

a)

While gravity pulls you down very quickly, Air Resistance (fluid friction) pushes back against gravity and your parachute, slowing you down

b)

While gravity pushes you down very slowly, Air Resistance (fluid friction) pulls back against gravity and your parachute, which means you can land safely

c)

When you have a parachute gravity is not able to pull you down as fast as it normally can

d)

The parachute will get caught on something on your way down which will save your life
