Assertion: Angle of repose is equal to angle of limiting friction.
Reason: When a body is just at the point of motion, the force of friction of this stage is called as limiting friction.
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
A
Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.
Angle of repose is equal to angle of limiting friction as maximum value of static friction is called the limiting friction.
