4.Assessment
Direction: Choose the letter of the correct answer.
1. Which of the following shows the presence of friction?
a. Cars continuously roll down hills
b. Things fall off on smooth surfaces
c. People stay in place as they move
d. Cars stop when the driver steps on the brakes
 2. Which of the following statements is not true about friction?
a. it acts upward opposing the pull of gravity
b. it prevents things from sliding off surfaces
c. it keeps things that are in contact with each other
d. it holds objects that are separated by great distance
3. How distance between two objects affects the pull of gravity?
a. The lesser the distance, the lesser the gravitational pull between them
b. The greater the distance, the lesser the gravitational pull between them
c. The greater the distance, the greater the gravitational pull between them
d. None of these, gravitational pull between them depends on their weights
