Assertion: When a sphere is rolls freely on a horizontal table, it slows down and eventually stops.

Reason: When the sphere rolls on the table, both the sphere and the surface deform near the contact. As a result, the normal force does not pass through the centre and provide an angular deceleration.
View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.
Option A is correct. The sphere slows down due to deformation at the contact point, causing the normal force to be off-center and creating a torque that opposes the motion.
