Work
Correct Answer
A. WorkExplanation
Work is the correct answer because it is the result of a force moving an object through a distance. When a force is applied to an object and it is displaced in the direction of the force, work is done. Work is calculated by multiplying the force applied to the object by the distance it is moved. It is a measure of the energy transfer that occurs when an object is moved by a force.Rate this question:

Friction
Correct Answer
A. ForceExplanation
Force is the correct answer because it refers to a push or pull on an object. Force is a vector quantity that can cause an object to accelerate or change its shape. It is measured in units of Newtons (N) and can be exerted through contact or at a distance. Force is a fundamental concept in physics and is responsible for the motion and interactions of objects in the universe.Rate this question:

The resistance to motion caused by two objects moving against each other, can cause heat.
-
Friction
-
Force
-
Kinetic energy
-
Work
Correct Answer
A. FrictionExplanation
Friction is the resistance to motion between two objects moving against each other. This resistance can cause heat to be generated. When two objects rub against each other, the surface irregularities create friction, which converts some of the kinetic energy of the moving objects into heat energy. Therefore, friction is the correct answer as it explains how the resistance to motion can cause heat.Rate this question:
