$A$ rocket is fired vertically from the earth with an acceleration of $2g,$ where $g$ is the gravitational acceleration. On an inclined plane inside the rocket,making an angle $\theta$ with the horizontal,a point object of mass $m$ is kept. The minimum coefficient of friction $\mu_{min}$ between the mass and the inclined surface such that the mass does not move is

  • A
    $\tan 2\theta$
  • B
    $\tan \theta$
  • C
    $3\tan \theta$
  • D
    $2\tan \theta$

An insect is at the bottom of a hemispherical ditch of radius $R = 1\, m$. It crawls up the ditch but starts slipping after it is at height $h$ from the bottom. If the coefficient of friction between the ground and the insect is $\mu = 0.75$,then $h$ is $.......\, m$. $(g = 10\, m s^{-2})$

$A$ block is placed on a rough inclined plane of inclination $\theta = 30^o$. If the force required to drag it up along the plane is to be smaller than the force required to lift it vertically,the coefficient of friction $\mu$ should be less than:
