Friction is similar to drag. Like drag it acts on an object in the opposite direction from the object’s motion. How does the friction slow motion?

Explanation:

•  Friction is a force that occurs when two surfaces slide past

one another.

• The force of friction opposes the motion of an object,

causing moving objects to lose energy and slow down.

• When objects move through a fluid, such as air or water, the

fluid exerts a frictional force on the moving object. The

frictional force from a fluid is called a drag force.

• Friction examples: tires skidding to a stop on a road,

sandpaper rubbing against wood, air pushing against the

nose of an airplane

• Friction drag force causes objects to slow down as they move through a

fluid, such as air or water.

• Drag force depends primarily on the following variables:

– Cross‐sectional area of an object moving through the fluid

– Speed of moving object

– Density of the fluid

– Drag coefficient (determined by experiments; related to the shape of

the object)

• Drag force is especially dependent on the speed of an object. As an

object’s speed increases, the drag force from the fluid increases

exponentially.

• For example, when you drive at high speeds, the frictional force of air on

the car increases and fuel economy decreases

Hope this helps, have a nice day/night! :D

answer; /// i do believe that the correct answer is (a) boiling
