  1. Frictional Force: The force that resists an object's motion.
  2. Frictional force is represented by 'N'
  3. The magnitude of the frictional force depends on the roughness of the surface in contact and the weight of the object.
  4. Formula for Frictional force is given byf=μN, where f = frictional force, μ = coefficient of friction, and N = Normal Force
  5. The frictional force depends on the weight of an object.

Hence, the given statement is FALSE
