Detailed Solution

Frictional force opposes the motion of the bodies against each other. It arises due to the interlocking of the irregularities present in the surfaces. 

Static friction is the friction between the bodies that are at rest with respect to each other.
Sliding friction is the force of friction between two bodies in motion. 
Rolling friction is exerted when one body rolls over the other. For example, friction between a wheel and the road.

In static friction, since the objects are not moving, the irregularities of the surfaces get interlocked with each other. Therefore, static friction is the strongest frictional force.

In sliding friction the surface of the object does not get enough time to interlock with the other surface due to their motion. Hence it is less than static friction.

In rolling friction, a very minimal part of the body is in direct contact with the other surface and it is continuously moving due to which interlocking is very. Hence rolling friction is the weakest frictional force.

Hence the correct increasing order is Rolling friction<Sliding friction<Static Friction
