Question
Read each statement below carefully, and state, with reasons, if it is true or false;
For perfect rolling motion, work done against friction is zero.

Solution
True
When perfect rolling begins, the frictional force acting at the lowermost point becomes zero. Hence, the work done against friction is also zero.
