The answer is static friction. This is the friction that involves objects that do not move.

Answer:

Static friction

Explanation:

Friction is a force which opposes the motion of one object moving relative to another. static friction and kinetic friction are the two type of friction.

Static friction is that type of friction which keeps an object at rest. Force must be applied greater than static friction to move an object. Therefore it is the static friction which helps the pile of rocks from falling apart.

"The White Shark" allows riders to start from rest on a tube and then slide down a 44 meter slide. It takes the rider 6.2 second
Leni [432]
<span>Acceleration is the rate of change of the velocity of an object that is moving. This value is a result of all the forces that is acting on an object which is described by Newton's second law of motion. Calculations of such is straightforward, if we are given the final velocity, the initial velocity and the total time interval. However, we are not given these values. We are only left by using the kinematic equation expressed as:

d = v0t + at^2/2

We cancel the term with v0 since it is initially at rest,

d = at^2/2
44 = a(6.2)^2/2
a = 2.3 m/s^2

Action and reaction force always cancel each other. <br><br> True or False.
polet [3.4K]
False. They have same magnitude and opposite direction but they never cancel as each of them does the action on the other body, and for the forces to cancel out they need to act ob the same body.

Hope this helps!
