MCQ
$Assertion$ : Frictional forces are conservative forces.
$Reason$ : Potential energy can be associated with frictional forces.
  • A
    If both Assertion and Reason are correct and the Reason is a correct explanation of the Assertion.
  • B
    If both Assertion and Reason are correct but Reason is not a correct explanation of the Assertion.
  • C
    If the Assertion is correct but Reason is incorrect.
  • If both the Assertion and Reason are incorrect.

Answer

Correct option: D.
If both the Assertion and Reason are incorrect.
d
Frictional force is non-conservative as work done against frictional force can not be stored as potential energy.
