$A$ solid cylinder is placed on a rough surface of inclination $\theta$. The minimum value of the coefficient of static friction between the cylinder and the surface so that the cylinder rolls without slipping is:

  • A
    $\frac{1}{3} \tan \theta$
  • B
    $\frac{1}{3} \sin \theta$
  • C
    $\frac{2}{3} \tan \theta$
  • D
    $\frac{2}{3} \sin \theta$
