The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, we need to fill in the blank with the correct term related to friction. The question states: "In the _______ of friction, objects would have simply slipped out of our hands." ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Concept of Friction**: - Friction is a force that opposes the relative motion between two surfaces in contact. It allows us to hold objects without them slipping from our hands. 2. **Analyzing the Options**: - The options provided are: presence, absence, direction, or none of them. - We need to determine which of these terms accurately describes the condition under which objects would slip from our hands. 3. **Considering the Absence of Friction**: - If there is no friction (absence of friction), then there is nothing to oppose the gravitational force acting on the object. This means that when we try to hold an object, it would not stay in our hands and would slip away. 4. **Conclusion**: - Therefore, the correct term to fill in the blank is "absence". The complete statement would be: "In the absence of friction, objects would have simply slipped out of our hands." ### Final Answer: In the **absence** of friction, objects would have simply slipped out of our hands. ---

A uniform solid cylinder having mass M and radius R is pulled by a horiozntal force F acting through the center as shown. The cylinder rolls to the right without slipping. What is the magnitude of the force of friction between the cylinder and the ground?

Two identical rings, each of mass M and radius R, are standing on a rough horizontal surface. The rings overlap such that the horizontal line passing through their centre makes an angle of theta = 45^(@) with the radius through their intersection point P. A small object of mass m is placed symmetrically on the rings at point P and released. Calculate the acceleration of the centre of the ring immediately after the release. There is no friction between the small object and the rings. The friction between the small object and the rings, and the friction between the rings and the ground is large enough to prevent slipping.
