A block creeps along very slowly. At small but nonzero speeds friction is nearly:
ASpeed free
BSpeed bound
CSpeed timed
DSpeed based
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: A. Speed free
1. Doubling a crawl barely changes the force.
2. Friction hardly notices such speeds.
3. So it is nearly independent of speed.
