When a board with a box on it is slowly tilted to larger and larger angle, common experience shows that the box will at some point "break loose" and start to accelerate down the board. the box begins to slide once the component of gravity acting parallel to the board fg just begins to exceeds the maximum force of static friction. which of the following is the most general explanation for why the box accelerates down the board?

a. the force of kinetic friction is smaller than that of static friction, but fg remains the same.
b. once the box is moving, fg is smaller than the force of static friction but larger than the force of kinetic friction.
c. once the box is moving, fg is larger than the force of static friction.
d. when the box is stationary, fg equals the force of static friction, but once the box starts moving, the sliding reduces the normal force, which in turn reduces the friction.

Aperson gives a shopping cart an initial push along a horizontal floor to get it moving, and then lets go. the cart travels forward along the floor, gradually slowing as it moves. consider the horizontal force(s) on the cart while it is moving forward and slowing. which of the following statements is correct? (a) both a forward and a backward force are acting on the cart, but the forward force is larger. (b) only a forward force is acting which diminishes with time. (c) both a forward and a backward force are acting on the cart, but the backward force is larger. (d) only a backward force is acting, no forward force.
