If
and
are coefficients of static friction, sliding friction and rolling friction, then
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
C
Rolling friction is always less than sliding friction, that is why it is easy to move a heavy load from one place to another by rolling it over the surface instead of sliding it over the same surface. Moreover, it is quite obvious that static friction is always greater than kinetic friction.
