Complete the passage using the suitable words given in option below.
A rough surface will offer a `underline((i))` frictional force than a smooth surface. The heavier the object, the `underline((ii))` will be the frictional force. Friction is a `underline((iii))` force.

A

`{:((i),(ii),(iii)""),("Lower","Greater","Resistive"):}`

B

`{:((i),(ii),(iii)""),("Greater" ,"Lower" ,"Contact"):}`

C

`{:((i),(ii),(iii)""),("Greater" ,"Greater" ,"Contact"):}`

D

`{:((i),(ii),(iii)""),("Lower" ,"Lower" ,"Resistive"):}`

The correct Answer is:
To complete the passage, we will analyze each blank and fill them with the appropriate words based on the context of friction. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Blank (i)**: The passage states that "A rough surface will offer a `underline((i))` frictional force than a smooth surface." - **Analysis**: Rough surfaces have more interlocking and greater resistance to motion compared to smooth surfaces. - **Answer**: The correct word to fill in is **greater**. 2. **Blank (ii)**: The passage continues with "The heavier the object, the `underline((ii))` will be the frictional force." - **Analysis**: Heavier objects exert more force due to their weight, which increases the frictional force acting on them. - **Answer**: The correct word to fill in is **greater**. 3. **Blank (iii)**: Finally, the passage states "Friction is a `underline((iii))` force." - **Analysis**: Friction occurs between two surfaces in contact and acts to oppose the relative motion between them. It is a force that arises from contact. - **Answer**: The correct word to fill in is **contact**. ### Completed Passage: A rough surface will offer a **greater** frictional force than a smooth surface. The heavier the object, the **greater** will be the frictional force. Friction is a **contact** force.
