    A)  Hold them easily

    B)  Reduce their cost

    C)  Make them strong

    D)  Increase their friction

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

      The roughness over a surface increases its friction. Sparks are produced when a matchstick is rubbed against the rough surface of a matchbox. This is caused by the large friction produced between the matchstick and the box. Hence, the sides of matchboxes are made rough. The correct answer is D.
