Answer:
B-Friction

How?
Friction is when two surfaces rub against each other. This creates heat and resistance. It would only make sense that this force would slow you down will sliding across floors

Friction can slows you down as you slide across the floor.

Answer: Option B

<u>Explanation:</u>

Every action has an equal and opposite reaction. So when we fall or slide upon a floor, just like resistance opposes the current flowing in the circuit, there is an external force that acts upon when we fall or slide away.

This external force is called as friction.  Friction opposes the object making the object slowly decrease its speed and lose energy. Gravity is the force that makes all the objects to return to the earth or ground when thrown upon.

Use conservation of momentum ;

m1u1 + m2u2 = m1v1 + m2v2

1200×15.6 + 0 = 2700v

v = 18720/2700

v = 6.933 or ~ 7 m/s

According to Newton's first law of motion, what is required to make an object slow down? Enter your answer in the space provided
LenaWriter [7]

<u>Answer:</u>

According to newton's first law of motion, friction is required to make an object slow down.

<u>Explanation:</u>

According to the Newton's first law of motion, for an object to change its velocity (either a change in the magnitude or the direction), there must be a cause to it which is defined as a net external force.

For example, an object which is sliding across a table or floor slows down due to the net force of friction that is acting on that object.
