    $3/4$
  • B
    $1/4$
  • C
    $2/3$
  • D

$A$ block of mass $m$ rests on a rough inclined plane. The coefficient of friction between the surface and the block is $\mu$. At what angle of inclination $\theta$ of the plane to the horizontal will the block just start to slide down the plane?

$A$ brick of mass $2 \, kg$ begins to slide down on a plane inclined at an angle of $45^\circ$ with the horizontal. The force of friction will be

$A$ block of mass $5 \ kg$ is kept against an accelerating wedge with a wedge angle of $45^{\circ}$ to the horizontal. The coefficient of friction between the block and the wedge is $\mu = 0.4$. What is the minimum absolute value of the acceleration of the wedge to keep the block steady? Assume $g = 10 \ m \ s^{-2}$.

Consider a block kept on an inclined plane (inclined at $45^{\circ}$) as shown in the figure. If the force required to just push it up the incline is $2$ times the force required to just prevent it from sliding down,the coefficient of friction between the block and inclined plane $(\mu)$ is equal to
