Difficulty: Easy
Correct Answer: True — the statement is correct
Explanation:
Concept
• Square threads have zero flank angle → lowest friction among common forms, but less root strength compared to V/Whitworth because of a smaller shear area.
• Whitworth (V) threads (55°) have higher friction due to the included angle and normal force components on the flanks.
Conclusion
The statement matches standard design comparisons.
Final Answer
True — the statement is correct
