Which of the following statement is NOT TRUE in respect of friction.
  1. The static friction is a self adjusting force.
  2. The force that prevents the relative motion between the layers of a liquid is called contact friction.
  3. The value of the limiting friction is independent of the area of the surface in contact so long as the normal reaction remains the same.
  4. Lubrication reduces friction because the relative motion takes place between solid and liquid.

Answer

(B) The force that prevents the relative motion between the layers of a liquid is called contact friction.
