(b) "It is easier to drag a mat on the floor when nobody is sitting on it but
very much more difficult to drag it when a person is sitting on it." Why?

Answers

Answered by lavairis504qjio

Explanation:

Friction is caused by the inter locking of the irregularities in the two surfaces. When two surfaces are pressed harder together, the force of friction increases. Therefore, it is easy to drag a mat when no body is sitting on it rather than when a person is sitting on it.
