NEET Physics Friction MCQ Question
Which of the following statements about friction are correct?
Frictional force only acts when there is relative motion between surfaces.
Static friction can be greater than kinetic friction when both forces are in play.
Friction opposes both impending and actual relative motion between surfaces.
The maximum value of static friction is always equal to the normal reaction force.
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
Friction opposes both impending and actual relative motion between surfaces, as indicated in the NCERT context. Static friction can be greater than kinetic friction, but the maximum value of static friction is not necessarily equal to the normal reaction force.
