Question

a fish uses 14 n of applied force to swim through the water. what type of friction is acting on the fish as it swims? viscous friction sliding friction static friction air friction

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Viscous friction (also called fluid friction) occurs when an object moves through a fluid (like water). The fish is moving through water, so the friction acting on it is viscous friction. Sliding friction is between solid surfaces sliding, static friction is when an object is at rest, and air friction is in air (not water here).

Answer:

viscous friction
