Assertion: Static frictional force is a ...

Assertion: Static frictional force is a self adjusting force.
Reason: Force of static friction does not depend upon the mass of the body.

A

If both assertion `&` Reason are True `&` the Reason is a corrrect explanation of the Asserion.

B

If both Assertion `&` Reason are True but Reason is not correct explanation of the Assertion.

C

If Assertion is Trie but the Reason is False.

D

If both Assertion `&` Reason are false

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
`f_(s)("max")=muN`
depends on `mu` and N and not on mass.
