The minimum force required to start pushing a body up a rough (having coefficient of friction $\mu$) inclined plane is $F_1$, while the minimum force needed to prevent it from sliding down is $F_2$. If the inclined plane makes an angle $\theta$ with the horizontal such that $\tan \theta = 2\mu$, then the ratio $F_1 / F_2$ is
