Question

Q. The sliding friction is less than maximum static friction because

a) Maximum static friction is due to the interlocking of irregularities in the two surfaces

b) When the object starts sliding the contact points on its surface do not get enough time to lock into
the contact points on the floor.

c) When the object starts sliding the contact points on its surface do get enough time to lock into the
contact points on the floor.

d) Both a &b


Explaination needed.... Thanks ​

Answer 1

Answer:

option A

Explanation:

static friction If we push an object with a small force static friction establish an equal and opposite force as we push harder the static friction increases due to interlocking of irregularities
