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. _Source: OpenStax University Physics Volume 1, Chapter 6, Applications of Newton's Laws._
