Answer:

3rd option

Explanation:

According to modern theory of friction, friction cannot be reduced by making smooth. example two mirrors are smooth but if kept in contact there is very high friction. It is due to intermolecular force of attraction but not roughness.

But if you go towards old theory then last option is correct as friction is due to roughness
