d. the surface on which the object is moving is made smoother
This is called lubrication, I think ...
b. the weight of the moving object is decreased
If there is less araea of contact because of the weight reduction ("squeezing together") then this could also have an effexct. I thinl though the thrust of the q is on lubrication = oil, talcum powder, thin films of water etc

Answer:
5 N
Explanation:
The bucket is moving at a constant speed of 2m/s Therefore F=ma is 0 N for this to be correct the magnitude of the force exerted by the rope must be equal to the weight of the bucket which is 5 N
Answer:
1) d
2) 5 m/s
3) 100
Explanation:
The equation of position x for a constant acceleration a and an initial velocity v₀, initial position x₀, time t is:
(i) 
The equation for velocity v and a constant acceleration a is:
(ii) 
1) Solve equation (ii) for acceleration a and plug the result in equation (i)
(iii) 
(iv) 
Simplify equation (iv) and use the given values v = 0, x₀ = 0:
(v) 
2) Given v₀= 3m/s, a=0.2m/s², t=10 s. Using equation (ii) to get the final velocity v:
3) Given v₀=0m/s, t₁=10s, t₂=1s and x₀=0. Looking for factor f = x(t₁)/x(t₂) using equation(i) to calculate x(t₁) and x(t₂):
