Question

Statement I: We can live very happily if friction is not present in nature.
Statement II: Airplane shape is streamlined to reduce frictional force.

  1. Both statements I and II are true, statement II is correct explanation for statement I.
  2. Both statements I and II are true, statement II is not the correct explanation for statement I.
  3. Statement I is true, and statement II is false.
  4. Statement I is false, and statement II is true.

hintHint:

Without friction, daily activities cannot be made easy and possible. While airplanes are streamlined to minimize fluid friction , writing, holding etc needs frictional force to get our job done.
Thus, friction is necessary evil.

The correct answer is: Statement I is false, and statement II is true.


    Statement I is false, and statement II is true.
    • Friction is necessary for all the activities in day-to-day life.
    • There exists certain circumstances where it is required to minimize or maximize friction in real life activities.
    • The airplanes are streamlined to reduce the effect of frictional force.
    • Activities such as walking, holding, jumping etc. needs friction.
