Question
5 fill in the blank 1 point trying to push a parked car down the street, but you cant move it choose your answer... choose your answer... rolling friction pr sliding friction fluid friction static friction
Static friction acts on objects at rest. When you try to push a parked car (which is at rest initially), the friction opposing the start of motion is static friction. Rolling friction occurs when an object rolls (like a wheel rolling), sliding friction when there is sliding motion (e.g., a block sliding on a surface), and fluid friction in fluids (air or liquid). Since the car is not moving (no rolling, sliding or in - fluid motion as per the context of pushing on street), static friction is the relevant type.
