To determine whether the statement "When a body rolls on a stationary ground, the acceleration of the point of contact is always zero" is true or false, let's analyze the situation step by step. ### Step 1: Understanding Rolling Motion When a body rolls on a stationary surface, it means that the body is rotating about its axis while also translating forward. The point of contact between the rolling body and the ground is crucial in this analysis. **Hint:** Consider how rolling motion involves both rotation and translation. ### Step 2: Analyzing the Point of Contact ...
