$A$ uniform metal chain is placed on a rough table such that one end of the chain hangs down over the edge of the table. When one-third of its length hangs over the edge,the chain starts sliding. Then,the coefficient of static friction is

  • A
    $3/4$
  • B
    $1/4$
  • C
    $2/3$
  • D
    $1/2$

$A$ body of mass $2 \ kg$ slides down with an acceleration of $4 \ m/s^2$ on an inclined plane having a slope of $30^{\circ}$. The external force required to take the same body up the plane with the same acceleration will be (Acceleration due to gravity $= 10 \ m/s^2$) (in $N$)

The force required just to move a body up an inclined plane is double the force required just to prevent the body from sliding down. If $\mu$ is the coefficient of friction,the inclination of the plane to the horizontal is:

When a body slides down from rest along a smooth inclined plane making an angle of $45^{\circ}$ with the horizontal,it takes time $T$. When the same body slides down from rest along a rough inclined plane making the same angle and through the same distance,it is seen to take time $pT$,where $p$ is some number greater than $1$. Calculate the coefficient of friction between the body and the rough plane.

An object takes $n$ times as much time to slide down a $45^{\circ}$ rough inclined plane as it takes to slide down a perfectly smooth inclined plane of the same inclination. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the object and the rough incline is given by:
