SOF, WHEN ARE YOU GOING TO LISTEN TO THE DEMANDS OF THE STUDENTS WHO ATTEMPT YOUR TEST PAPERS ON A REGULAR BASIS?! FRICTION ALWAYS ACTS OPPOSITE TO THE DIRECTION OF MOTION. MOREOVER, THE FIRST STATEMENT IS ALSO CORRECT, SINCE THE GROUND WILL EXERT FRICTION OPPOSITE TO THE DIRECTION OF MOTION OF THE PERSON. SINCE BOTH STATEMENTS ARE CORRECT AND THE SECOND STATEMENT IS THE CORRECT EXPLANATION OF THE FIRST ONE, OPTION A IS THE CORRECT ANSWER. It is a humble request to PLEASE rectify these incessant errors in test papers.
