Question

Statement 1: Wheels of a moving car will experience both rolling friction and fluid friction simultaneously.

Statement 2: A body cannot experience multiple types of friction at the same time.

• A. Only statement 1 is correct
• B. Only statement 2 is correct
• C. Both statements are correct
• D. Both statements are incorrect

Answer 1

The correct option is A Only statement 1 is correct

Wheels roll on the road. Hence, they will experience rolling friction.

The frictional force exerted by fluids on a object is called fluid friction. As wheels are rolling and moving forward in the air, it also experiences fluid friction.

Therefore, a body can experience multiple types of friction at the same time.
