 INSTRUCTIONS
PART 02
In this part, you have to name the
types of friction being described
and illustrated in every situation
and item. To answer, you need to
write your answer by determining
the type of friction presented.
 QUESTION O6
What type of friction keeps a block
from sliding or moving on the table
when it's not being pushed or pulled?

Sliding Friction

a.
Fluid Friction

b.
Static Friction

c.
 QUESTION O7
When you pull a block, what type of
friction takes over? This is the force
that resists motion as the block slides
across a surface.

Sliding Friction

a.
Rolling Friction

b.
Fluid Friction

c.
QUESTION O8
What type of friction is created
when the bowling ball and the
surface rub against each other?

Sliding Friction

a.
Rolling Friction

b.
Static Friction

c.
 QUESTION O9
When a ball is dropped from a height
It creates air resistance that resists its
motion through it. What fiction is
created?

Fluid Friction

a.
Static Friction

b.
Rolling Friction

c.
 INSTRUCTIONS
PART 03
In this part, you have to identify the
characteristics of gravity being
described and illustrated by the
items. To answer, you need to write
your answer by determining the
type of friction presented.
 QUESTION 10
This characteristic of gravity is
described as a "pulling" force that
makes objects move toward each
other. What characteristic is this?

Gravity Attracts

a.
Gravity is Universal

b.
Gravity Grounds

c.
 QUESTION 11
Gravity is a force that exists between
objects, even if they are not touching
each other. What characteristic is
this?

Gravity Grounds

a.
Gravity is Universal

b.
Gravity is Non-Contact

c.
 QUESTION 12

on the ground. Without gravity, we
would all float away into space. What
characteristic is this?

Gravity Grounds

a.
Gravity Attracts

b.
Gravity is Universal

c.
