The correct choice is (a) True

To explain I would say: The friction, experienced by a body, when at rest, is known as static friction.

             The friction, experienced by a body, when in motion, is known as dynamic friction.

             The maximum frictional force, which comes into play, when a body just begins to slide over

             the surface of the other body, is known as limiting friction.
