Question

2. You spill a bucket of soapy water on a marble floor accidently. Would it make it easier or more difficult for you to walk on the floor? Why?

Answer 1

We are able to walk because of the friction present between our feet and the ground. In order to walk, we push the ground in the backward direction with our feet. The force of friction pushes it in the forward direction and allows us to walk. The force of friction between the ground and feet decreases when there is soapy water spilled on the floor. Hence, it becomes difficult to walk on the soapy floor.

Answer 2

soppy marble reduce the friction of the surface therefore it becomes more difficult to walk on the soppy marble floor this happen because to move forward we need to push the ground in backwards

which become difficult if friction is less
