$A$ smooth block is released at rest on a $45^\circ$ incline and then slides a distance $d$. The time taken to slide is $n$ times as much to slide on a rough incline than on a smooth incline. The coefficient of kinetic friction is:

  • A
    $\mu_k = 1 - \frac{1}{n^2}$
  • B
    $\mu_k = \sqrt{1 - \frac{1}{n^2}}$
  • C
    $\mu_s = 1 - \frac{1}{n^2}$
  • D
    $\mu_s = \sqrt{1 - \frac{1}{n^2}}$

$A$ 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:

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

$A$ body is placed on a rough inclined plane of inclination $\theta$. As the angle $\theta$ is increased from $0^o$ to $90^o$,the contact force between the block and the plane

$A$ rocket is fired vertically from the earth with an acceleration of $2g,$ where $g$ is the gravitational acceleration. On an inclined plane inside the rocket,making an angle $\theta$ with the horizontal,a point object of mass $m$ is kept. The minimum coefficient of friction $\mu_{min}$ between the mass and the inclined surface such that the mass does not move is

$A$ 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:
