Question



While teaching the topic ‘Friction’ to Class V students, a teacher gave a number of examples to explain that friction is also useful to us in many ways. Which one of the following examples was quoted by her incorrectly?

A.

We are able to walk because of friction between our shoes and the ground

B.

An object thrown vertically upwards always come back to us due to friction

C.

A vehicle stops on application of brakes

D.

We are able to write due to friction between the tip of the pen and the paper

Correct option is B


The correct answer is An object thrown vertically upwards always comes back to us due to friction.
When a ball is thrown vertically upward, its velocity decreases gradually. This is because the earth produces a gravitational force that brings down everything that goes up. Friction is not applied in this situation.
