MCQ
A sphere is rolled on a rough horizontal surface. It gradually slows down and stops. The force of friction tries to:
  1. Decrease the linear velocity.
  2. Increase the angular velocity.
  3. Increase the linear momentum.
  4. Decrease the angular velocity.
  • $A$ and $B$
  • B
    $B$ and $C$
  • C
    $A$ and $D$
  • D
    $B$ and $D$

Answer

Correct option: A.
$A$ and $B$
If a sphere is rolled on a rough horizontal surface, the force of friction tries to oppose the linear motion and favours the angular motion.
