$A$ body is moving down a long inclined plane of slope $37^{\circ}$. The coefficient of friction between the body and the plane varies as $\mu = 0.3x$,where $x$ is the distance travelled down the plane. The body will have maximum speed at:

  • A
    at $x = 1.16 \, m$
  • B
    at $x = 2 \, m$
  • C
    at $x = 2.5 \, m$
  • D
    at the bottom of the plane

$A$ block of mass $5\,kg$ and surface area $2\,m^2$ just begins to slide down an inclined plane when the angle of inclination is $30^{\circ}$. Keeping the mass the same,the surface area of the block is doubled. The angle at which this starts sliding down is:

$A$ block of mass $5 kg$ is at rest on a rough inclined surface. If the angle of inclination of the plane is $60^{\circ}$,then the total force applied by the surface on the block is .......... $N$. (Take $g = 10 m/s^2$)

$A$ rectangular box lies on a rough inclined surface. The coefficient of friction between the surface and the box is $\mu$. Let the mass of the box be $m$.
