Whenever you push an object across a frictional surface, it starts out taking a lot of force to push to get the object moving. H
son4ous [18]

Answer:

The answer is A

Explanation:

Here's an example. A child is in school taking a test. They have made a mistake on a question, and want to erase it. The eraser is made out of a type of rubber, the rubber has friction, which means the eraser has something that's going to resist movement. Now the child has exerted enough force to get it moving, and it's moving, it won't stop unless the child stops exerting force to keep it moving. Both Newton's 1st and 3rd law explain the action of moving something on a surface with friction.
