Answer:
Sliding friction is less than static friction as the frictional force between two surfaces depends on the interlocking between the irregularities on the surfaces. This interlocking in case of sliding decreases as the contact points does not get enough time to interlock properly thus reducing the frictional force.

Answer:
Friction is because of irregularities of two surfaces in contact.
In sliding friction, time given for the interlocking the irregularities of the two surfaces is very small that is why sliding friction is very less than static friction.
