Limiting friction of a body depends on _____(a) Area of contact of surfaces(b) The volume of the smaller body on larger surface(c) Nature of surfaces(d) The periphery of the contact surfacesThe question was posed to me during an internship interview.The query is from Friction topic in section Work, Energy and Power of Physics – Class 11

Answer»

The CORRECT answer is (c) Nature of surfaces

For explanation I WOULD SAY: Since limiting friction depends only of the coefficient of friction of the surfaces, it, therefore, depends only of the nature of the SURFACE, i.e., smoothness or roughness.
