$A$ cylindrical vessel filled with water is released on an inclined surface of angle $\theta$ as shown in the figure. The friction coefficient of the surface with the vessel is $\mu (< \tan \theta)$. Then the contact angle made by the surface of water with the incline will be

  • A
    $\tan ^{-1} \mu$
  • B
    $\theta-\tan ^{-1} \mu$
  • C
    $\theta+\tan ^{-1} \mu$
  • D
    $\cot ^{-1} \mu$

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

In the given arrangement of a doubly inclined plane,two blocks of masses $M$ and $m$ are placed. The blocks are connected by a light string passing over an ideal pulley as shown. The coefficient of friction between the surface of the plane and the blocks is $0.25$. The value of $m$,for which $M=10 \text{ kg}$ will move down with an acceleration of $2 \text{ m/s}^2$,is: (take $g=10 \text{ m/s}^2$ and $\tan 37^{\circ}=3/4$) (in $\text{ kg}$)

When an object is shot from the bottom of a long smooth inclined plane kept at an angle $60^{\circ}$ with the horizontal,it can travel a distance $x_{1}$ along the plane. But when the inclination is decreased to $30^{\circ}$ and the same object is shot with the same velocity,it can travel $x_{2}$ distance. Then $x_{1}: x_{2}$ will be
