    In the decreasing order of magnitude, which of the following is correct?

    A)  Rolling < static < sliding friction

    B)                         Static > sliding > rolling friction

    C)                         Static > rolling > sliding friction

    D)                         Sliding < static < rolling friction

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    For the given surfaces static friction is somewhat greater than sliding friction as well as-rolling friction. It is easier to roll than to slide. Hence, sliding friction is greater than rolling friction. The decreasing order of magnitude of friction is static, sliding and rolling.
