Question

A 20 N object is placed on a surface and starts to slide. What is the MOST likely reason the object begins to move?

A O Gravity exerts a balanced force on the object.
В.
Friction is applied to the object.
c. An unbalanced force causes acceleration.
D
The forces acting on the object are in equilibrium.

Answer 1

Answer:c

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

c.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the object starts to slide it must be on a slope.

There are 2 forces acting on the object - gravity and the friction between the object and the surface.

If sliding starts then the forces must be unbalanced.

The force of gravity is greater than the friction.
