What is friction?, A force that makes objects heavier, A force that pulls objects down, A force that makes light, A force that acts when surfaces move against each other, What does friction usually do to a sliding object?, Makes it float, Changes its colour, Slows it down, Makes it move faster, Which surface usually creates the MOST friction?, Ice, Rough sandpaper, Smooth plastic, Smooth glass, Which surface usually creates the LEAST friction?, Rough carpet, Sandpaper, Smooth plastic, Rough concrete, Why is it harder to push a heavy box across a rough floor?, There is no gravity, There is more friction, The floor becomes softer, The box becomes lighter, Why does a rolling ball eventually stop on a flat floor?, Friction and air resistance slow it down, The floor pulls it upwards, The ball becomes heavier, Gravity disappears, A marble is rolled with the same force on grass and a smooth floor. Where will it usually travel further?, The same distance on both, It will not move, On grass, On the smooth floor, Why do we need more force to drag a box across rough carpet than smooth tiles?, Tiles create more friction, Carpet creates more friction, Gravity is stronger on carpet, The box becomes heavier, What will most likely happen if we make a surface rougher?, Gravity will decrease, Friction will decrease, Friction will disappear, Friction will increase, Two balls roll at the same speed. One rolls on smooth tiles and the other on rough carpet. Which ball will usually stop first?, The ball on tiles, The ball on carpet, Both at exactly the same time, Neither ball will stop, Which tool can measure the force needed to pull a container?, Thermometer, Measuring cylinder, Force meter, Ruler, A container needs 2 N of force to move steadily across plastic and 5 N across sandpaper at the same speed. What can we conclude?, Plastic creates more friction, Sandpaper has no friction, Sandpaper creates more friction, Both surfaces create equal friction
