Choose the correct answer.

Which of the following is an example of friction?
A. A diver jumping into water
B. A boy sliding
That's Correct!
It's Wrong!

In this image, the boy slows down and changes his speed and movement down the sliding ramp.

Friction is a force that opposes motion. It acts between two objects that are in contact.

On the other hand, the force of Earth’s gravity allows the diver to jump into the water without anything slowing him down and changing his movement.
