Kinetic and static friction are both resistive forces
Answer:
a) 500
b)-500, north west
Explanation:
a) sum of F= F1+F2= 200+300= 500
b) sum of forces=0
so 200+300-500+0
Friction can be bad by being too strong or too weak.
<span>Sometimes, when it is too strong, it decreases efficiency since some energy is wasted and turns to heat. Friction can also d</span><span>amage equipment/objects like when you slide it on the floor.

When friction is too weak, like for instance when there is black ice- our center of gravity is displaced too quickly and we can fall. Likewise, if there is a lot of slush on the ground, cars can slip and slide.
