An inclined plane is bent in such a way that the vertical cross-section is given by $y = \frac{x^2}{4}$,where $y$ is in the vertical direction and $x$ is in the horizontal direction. If the upper surface of this curved plane is rough with a coefficient of friction $\mu = 0.5$,the maximum height in $cm$ at which a stationary block will not slip downward is............$cm$.

  • A
    $20$
  • B
    $25$
  • C
    $16$
  • D
    $30$

$A$ 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?

$A$ block takes time $t$ to slide down a plane inclined at $45^\circ$ to the horizontal. If the surface is made smooth (frictionless),the block takes time $t/2$ to slide down the plane. The coefficient of friction between the block and the inclined plane is $\frac{\alpha}{100}$. The value of $\alpha$ is . . . . . . .

$A$ bob of mass $m$ is attached to a string of length $\ell$ whose other end is tied to a light vertical rod as shown in the figure.
