Detailed Solution

The above statement is True.
Because of the power of friction, we can walk. When two things come into direct touch, friction, a contact force, develops. When we walk, the ground pushes back against our feet with an equal and opposite reaction from the ground, which moves us forward. Slipping occurs when there is less friction between our feet and the ice due to walking on it.
Question ImageWhen two rough surfaces come into contact, they generate frictional force or an opposing force, converted into heat. Body deformation: During motion, deformations in the body or the body's surface in contact may cause friction.
