Assertion: Friction is a self-adjusting force.
Reason: Friction does not depend upon mass of the body

A

If both, Assertion and Reason are true and the Reason is the correct explanation of the Assertion

B

If both, Assertion and Reason are true but Reason is not a correct explanation of the Assertion

C

If Assertion is ture but the Reason is false

D

If both, Assertion and Reason are false

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
d

Only static friction is a self adjusting force This is because force of static friction is equal and opposite to applied force (so long as actual motion does not start) Friction does depend upon weight of the body .
