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=0Thus 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
