A ball is dropped from a height of 16 m on a horizontal floor. If it rebounds to a height of 9 m after striking the floor, the coefficient of restitution between ball and floor is
The magnitude of the kinetic friction bears a constant ratio to the normal reaction between two surfaces. The ratio being slightly less than that in the case of limiting friction
For moderate speeds the force of friction remains constant but decreases slightly with the increase of speed
The force of friction always acts in a direction opposite to that in which a body is moving
