Consider a small block sliding down an inclined plane of inclination $30^{\circ}$ with the horizontal. The coefficient of friction is $\mu = \frac{2}{3} x$,where $x$ is the distance (in meters) through which the mass slides down. The distance covered by the mass before it stops is

  • A
    $\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \text{ m}$
  • B
    $\sqrt{3} \text{ m}$
  • C
    $\frac{2}{\sqrt{3}} \text{ m}$
  • D
    $2 \sqrt{3} \text{ m}$

$A$ block of base $10 \ cm \times 10 \ cm$ and height $15 \ cm$ is kept on an inclined plane. The coefficient of friction between them is $\sqrt{3}$. The inclination $\theta$ of this inclined plane from the horizontal plane is gradually increased from $0^{\circ}$. Then

The upper half of an inclined plane of inclination $\theta$ is perfectly smooth,while the lower half is rough. $A$ body starting from rest at the top comes back to rest at the bottom. The coefficient of friction $\mu$ for the lower half is given by:

Two blocks $A$ and $B$ of equal masses are sliding down along straight parallel lines on an inclined plane of $45^{\circ}$. Their coefficients of kinetic friction are $\mu_A = 0.2$ and $\mu_B = 0.3$ respectively. At $t = 0$,both the blocks are at rest and block $A$ is $\sqrt{2} \text{ m}$ behind block $B$. Calculate the time and distance from the initial position where the front faces of the blocks come in line on the inclined plane as shown in the figure. (Use $g = 10 \text{ m/s}^2$)
