$A$ box when dropped from a certain height reaches the ground with a speed $v$. When it slides from rest from the same height down a rough inclined plane inclined at an angle $45^{\circ}$ to the horizontal,it reaches the ground with a speed $v/3$. The coefficient of sliding friction between the box and the plane is:

  • A
    $\frac{8}{9}$
  • B
    $\frac{1}{9}$
  • C
    $\frac{2}{3}$
  • D
    $\frac{1}{3}$

Two blocks of masses $1 \ kg$ and $2 \ kg$ are connected by a light rod and the system is slipping down a rough incline at an angle of $45^{\circ}$ with the horizontal. The coefficient of kinetic friction at both contacts is $0.4$. If the acceleration of the system is $\alpha \sqrt{2} \ m/s^2$, find the value of $\alpha$. (Use $g = 10 \ m/s^2$)

$A$ uniform chain of length $L$ hangs partly from a table and is kept in equilibrium by friction. If the maximum length of the chain that can hang without slipping is $l$,then the coefficient of friction between the table and the chain is:
