Nessa is doing a simple experiment to learn about friction. She puts on socks (A) and slides across her wooden floor. She then tries on a different pair of socks (B) and slides across the same wooden floor again, but notices that she stops sooner. Which statement best describes what Nessa should conclude from these observations?

Answer:

Nessa should conclude that socks (B) likely have less friction with the wooden floor compared to socks (A), as she stops sooner when wearing the second pair.
