Solution

The correct option is B Statement 1 is true, Statement 2 is true; Statement 2 is a correct explanation for Statement 1
The surface is smooth, thus there is no friction .
As net torque about the point O is zero α=0
Thus the wheel will do only translational motion but not rotational motion.
Also, the frictional force provides the torque about O necessary for a body to exhibit rotational motion.
Hence statement 1 is true, statement 2 is true; Statement 2 is a correct explanation for Statement 1
