$A$ block of mass $M$ is sliding down an inclined plane. An external force $F$ is applied vertically downwards on the block. The coefficient of static friction is $\mu_s$ and the coefficient of kinetic friction is $\mu_k$. The friction force acting on the block is:

  • A
    $\mu_s Mg \cos \theta$
  • B
    $(F+Mg) \sin \theta$
  • C
    $\mu_k (F+Mg) \cos \theta$
  • D
    $(Mg+F) \tan \theta$

The minimum force required to start pushing a body up a rough (frictional coefficient $\mu$) 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 $\frac{F_{1}}{F_{2}}$ is:

When a body slides down from rest along a smooth inclined plane making an angle of $30^{\circ}$ 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 takes time $\alpha T$,where $\alpha$ is a constant greater than $1$. The coefficient of friction between the body and the rough plane is $\frac{1}{\sqrt{x}}\left(\frac{\alpha^{2}-1}{\alpha^{2}}\right)$ where $x = .....$.

When a body is lying on a rough inclined plane and does not move,the force of friction

$A$ body is sliding down a rough inclined plane. The coefficient of friction between the body and the plane is $0.5$. The ratio of the net force required for the body to slide down and the normal reaction on the body is $1:2$. Then the angle of the inclined plane is (in $^{\circ}$)
