Question

The sliding friction is more than the rolling friction.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A True

1. Sliding friction is defined as the resistance that is created between any two objects when they are sliding against each other. For example, Two cards sliding against each other in a deck.
2. Rolling friction is the force of friction that exists between contacting surfaces when there's rolling motion between them. The Rolling of a ball or wheel on the ground is an example of Rolling friction.
3. Rolling friction is less than sliding friction because it has a point contact which significantly reduces the amount of interlocking of irregularities between contacting surfaces.

Thus, the statement is true.
