Question

On which surface will the ball move the least distance and why ?
(A)
Sand paper
(B)
Cardboard sheet
(C)
Frosted glass sheet
(D)
Wrinkle-free towel

Answer 1

Dear student,

The minimum distance is covered by the ball on the wrinkle free towel.
The distance covered depends upon the friction provided by the surface.
The maximum friction will be provided by the towel and hence, more the speed of the ball will be opposed on it.
