Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

Rolling friction takes place when an object rolls on the surface. Sliding friction takes place when two surfaces are rubbed against each other. Rolling friction is much less than sliding friction for same pair of bodies. When one body rolls upon another, there is theoretically no sliding or slip between them.
