An inclined plane is bent in such a way that the vertical cross-section is given by $y = \frac{x^2}{4}$,where $y$ is in the vertical direction and $x$ is in the horizontal direction. If the upper surface of this curved plane is rough with a coefficient of friction $\mu = 0.5$,the maximum height in $cm$ at which a stationary block will not slip downward is............$cm$.

The upper half of an inclined plane with an angle of inclination $\phi$ is smooth,while the lower half is rough. $A$ body starting from rest at the top of the inclined plane comes to rest at the bottom of the inclined plane. Then the coefficient of friction for the lower half is

The force required to move a body up a rough inclined plane is double the force required to prevent the body from sliding down the plane. The coefficient of friction,when the angle of inclination of the plane is $60^{\circ}$ is
