NEET Physics Friction Assertion Reason Question
Assertion (A): Kinetic friction is generally less than static friction. | Reason (R): Kinetic friction is independent of the area of contact between surfaces.
Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A.
Both A and R are true, but R is not the correct explanation of A.
A is true, but R is false.
A is false, but R is true.
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
Kinetic friction being less than static friction is due to the nature of forces involved, not because it is independent of the area of contact. Both statements are true but unrelated.
