| b) | Kinetic friction | least friction |
| c) | Rolling friction | objects are in motion |
| d) | Friction between the liquid layers | objects are sliding |
| e) | Sliding friction | objects are at rest |
Assertion: Friction always opposes the motion.
Reason: Whenever one surface moves or tries to move over another surface, the force of friction starts acting on the surfaces.
