FRICTION MULTIPLE CHOICE QUESTIONS (MCQ) WITH ANSWERS
FRICTION MULTIPLE CHOICE
QUESTIONS (MCQ) WITH
ANSWERS
MCQ increases the level of understanding
and clarity. Friction is the resistance
offered to motion of one body upon
another body. Frictional force is always
parallel to the surface of contact. It
depends upon the surface roughness.
Friction is a shear force. There are two
types of friction. Static friction develops
between the surfaces of contact of
two bodies at rest when force applied is
insufficient to move the body. The force of
friction between two bodies in motion is
dynamic friction. In the absence of a
lubricant, friction is called solid friction.
