Consider a small block sliding down an inclined plane of inclination $30^{\circ}$ with the horizontal. The coefficient of friction is $\mu = \frac{2}{3} x$, where $x$ is the distance (in meters) through which the mass slides down. The distance covered by the mass before it stops is

$A$ 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:

To determine the coefficient of friction between a rough surface and a block, the surface is kept inclined at $45^{\circ}$ and the block is released from rest. The block takes a time $t$ in moving a distance $d$. The rough surface is then replaced by a smooth surface and the same experiment is repeated. The block now takes a time $t/2$ in moving down the same distance $d$. The coefficient of friction is

$A$ block of mass $m$ slides down a plane inclined at an angle $\theta$. Which of the following will $NOT$ increase the energy lost by the block due to friction?

$A$ wooden box lying at rest on an inclined surface of a wet wood is held at static equilibrium by a constant force $F$ applied perpendicular to the incline. If the mass of the box is $1 \ kg$, the angle of inclination is $30^{\circ}$ and the coefficient of static friction between the box and the inclined plane is $0.2$, the minimum magnitude of $F$ is (Use $g=10 \ m/s^2$)
