Rolling friction is much less than sliding friction because the contact area between the object and the surface is much smaller. This is because the object rolls on a small contact patch, while when it slides, the entire surface of the object is in contact with the surface.<\/p>\n<p>The other options are incorrect because:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>A. the full weight of the barrel comes into play when it is pulled. This is true, but it does not explain why it is easier to roll the barrel than to pull it.<\/li>\n<li>C. more surface area of the barrel is in contact with the road when it is pulled. This is also true, but it does not explain why it is easier to roll the barrel than to pull it.<\/li>\n<li>D. coal tar is a liquid and it flows in the barrel when it is rolled.
