ii and iv are the same..it should be II and III or III and IV

it suppose tobe ii and iii

I think Ii and IV should be an option.
Friction does not act of a smooth surface despite it being in contact

Myschool ii and iv are also correct cos force act wen there is a relative motion between two surfaces in contact

II, III, IV Are correct.
Option C and D are correct.
Which one exactly do they want??

correct option here is
ii &iv

i ) is off because its not always disadvantage
iii) is off because it does not always exist between two bodies in contact with a relative motion . it occures when the surface is rough

so ii and iv
is very good to go

TRUE Statements:
✅ ii. It is sometimes a disadvantage

Example: Friction causes wear in machine parts, reducing efficiency.

✅ iii. It always exists where there is a relative motion of two bodies that are in contact

Friction opposes relative motion between surfaces in contact (kinetic friction).

✅ iv. It is sometimes very useful
FALSE Statement:
❌ i. It is always a disadvantage
Not true! While friction can be undesirable (e.g., energy loss in engines), it is also essential for many daily activities.

Example: Friction allows walking, driving (tire grip), and holding objects.
But since the options are two. i would go iwth ii and iii.

How do i understand it, i studied using studyhawkx.
