Two blocks $A$ and $B$ of equal masses are sliding down along straight parallel lines on an inclined plane of $45^{\circ}$. Their coefficients of kinetic friction are $\mu_A = 0.2$ and $\mu_B = 0.3$ respectively. At $t = 0$,both the blocks are at rest and block $A$ is $\sqrt{2} \text{ m}$ behind block $B$. Calculate the time and distance from the initial position where the front faces of the blocks come in line on the inclined plane as shown in the figure. (Use $g = 10 \text{ m/s}^2$)

  • A
    $2 \text{ s}, 8\sqrt{2} \text{ m}$
  • B
    $\sqrt{2} \text{ s}, 7 \text{ m}$
  • C
    $\sqrt{2} \text{ s}, 7\sqrt{2} \text{ m}$
  • D
    $2 \text{ s}, \frac{7}{\sqrt{2}} \text{ m}$
