$A$ block rests on a rough inclined plane making an angle of $30^{\circ}$ with the horizontal. The coefficient of static friction between the block and the plane is $0.8$. If the frictional force on the block is $10 \, N$,the mass of the block (in $kg$) is (take $g = 10 \, m/s^2$).

Starting from rest,the time taken by a body sliding down on a rough inclined plane at $45^{\circ}$ with the horizontal is twice the time taken to travel on a smooth plane of the same inclination and same distance. Then the coefficient of kinetic friction is

$A$ block moves down a smooth inclined plane of inclination $\theta$. Its velocity on reaching the bottom is $v$. If it slides down a rough inclined plane of the same inclination,its velocity on reaching the bottom is $v/n$,where $n$ is a number greater than one. The coefficient of friction $\mu$ is given by:

To determine the coefficient of friction between a rough surface and a block, the surface is kept inclined at $45^{\circ}$ and the block is released from rest. The block takes a time $t$ in moving a distance $d$. The rough surface is then replaced by a smooth surface and the same experiment is repeated. The block now takes a time $t/2$ in moving down the same distance $d$. The coefficient of friction is
