MCQ
Which force can possibly act on a body moving in a straight line?
- ATangential force
- BFriction force
- CCentrifugal force
- DCentripetal force
✓
Answer
- Friction force
Explanation:
In the physical world, no surface is frictionless. Hence whenever a body moves, the force of friction acts on it. Rest all forces act on the body only when it moves along a curve and not along a straight line.
