The acceleration produced by a net force on an object is

All of the above 1inversely proportional to the mass of the object 2 directly proportional to the magnitude of the net force 3 in the same direction as the net force.

Friction

All of the above. 1 comes from microscopic bumps that act as obstructions to the object's motion. 2 it has the name given to the force acting between surfaces sliding past one another. 3 acts in a direction that opposes the motion of an object.
