Question

while walking on ice one should take small steps to avoid slipping this is because smaller steps ensure a) larger friction b) smaller friction c) larger normal force d) smaller normal force

Answer 1

this is because as we know smaller steps ensure larger friction

Answer 2

Answer:

b) smaller friction

Explanation:

If the applied force is larger (which is the taking of long steps), the lower will be the friction and vice versa.. So Always take Small steps, if you ever got a chance of walking on ICE. In Short: Greater Applied Force= lesser Normal force= lesser friction.
