Question (2)
QN0035000

The coefficient of static friction between two surfaces depends upon

  • (A)

    the normal reaction

  • (B)

    the shape of the surface in contact

  • (C)

    the magnitude of applied force

  • (D)

    None of these

Correct Answer: A
Explanation:

Coefficient of static friction

Therefore, coefficient of static friction depends upon the normal reaction.

Question (3)
QN0035001

If the applied force is doubled, then coefficient of friction is

  • (A)

    halved

  • (B)

    tripled

Question (4)
QN0035002

When a box is in stationary position with respect to train moving with acceleration, then relative motion is opposed by the ...X.... Which provides the same acceleration to the box as that of the train, keeping it stationary relative to the train. Here,  refers to        

  • (A)

    kinetic friction 

  • (B)

    static friction

  • (C)

    limiting friction

  • (D)

    None of these

Correct Answer: B
Explanation:

When a box is in stationary position with respect to train moving with acceleration, then relative motion is opposed by the static friction.

Question (6)
QN0035004

It is difficult to move a cycle with brakes on because

  • (A)

    rolling friction opposes motion on road

  • (B)

    sliding friction opposes motion on road

  • (C)

    rolling friction is more than sliding friction

  • (D)

    sliding friction is more than rolling friction

Correct Answer: D
Explanation:

When brakes are on, the wheels of the cycle will slide on the road instead of rolling there. It means the sliding friction will come into play instead of rolling friction. The value of sliding friction is more than that of rolling friction.
