$A$ 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:

  • A
    $\frac{8}{9}$
  • B
    $\frac{1}{9}$
  • C
    $\frac{2}{3}$
  • D
    $\frac{1}{3}$

There are two inclined surfaces of equal length $(L)$ and the same angle of inclination $45^{\circ}$ with the horizontal. One of them is rough and the other is perfectly smooth. $A$ given body takes $2$ times as much time to slide down the rough surface than on the smooth surface. The coefficient of kinetic friction $(\mu_k)$ between the object and the rough surface is close to:
