Assertion: Pulling a lawn roller is easier than pushing it.
Reason:Pushing increases the apparent weight and hence the force of friction.

Assertion : Angle of repose is equal to angle of limiting friction. Reason : When the body is just at the point of motion, the force of friction in this stage is called as limiting friction.

Assertion: Friction is a self-adjusting force. Reason: A block on the horizontal table is acted upon by a force F. The graph of frictional force against applied force F is.

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

Assertion: The apparent weight of a person standing in a lift which moves upwards with uniform acceleration is always higher than his true weight. Reason: The weight (on the earth surface) always acts downwards.

Assertion : Surface tension decreases with increase in temperature . Reason : On increasing temperature kinetic energy increases and intermolecular forces decreases .

Assertion: Terminal potential difference of a cell is always less than its emf. Reason: Potential drop on internal resistance of cell increases terminal potential difference.

Assertion: Magnitude of the contact force is always greater than the magnitude of frictional force. Reason: Contact force is the resultant of the friction force and normal reaction.

Assertion: A body of weight 10N (W) is at rest on an inclined plane (mu=sqrt(3)/(2)) making an angle of 30^(@) with the horizontal. The force of friction acting on it is 5N Reason: In above situation, the limiting force of friction is given by f_("limitting")=mu W cos theta=7.5N .

Assertion: Frictional forces are conservative forces. Reason: Potential energy can be associated with frictional forces.

Assertion : For turbulent flow Reynolds number R_(e)gt2000 . Reason : For high value of Reynold number internal force is more effective than viscous force.
