  • A
    $2 \sin \phi$
  • B
    $2 \cos \phi$
  • C
    $2 \tan \phi$
  • D
    $\tan \phi$

$A$ person climbs up a conveyor belt with a constant acceleration. The speed of the belt is $\sqrt{\frac{g h}{6}}$ and the coefficient of friction is $\frac{5}{3 \sqrt{3}}$. The time taken by the person to reach from $A$ to $B$ with the maximum possible acceleration is

$A$ cube of side length $a$ is resting on an inclined plane. What must be the value of the coefficient of friction $\mu$ between the cube and the plane so that the cube topples before sliding?

$A$ car of weight $W$ is on an inclined road that rises by $100 \, m$ over a distance of $1 \, km$ and applies a constant frictional force $\frac{W}{20}$ on the car. While moving uphill on the road at a speed of $10 \, m/s$,the car needs power $P$. If it needs power $\frac{P}{2}$ while moving downhill at speed $v$,then the value of $v$ is ........ $m/s$.

$A$ small block starts slipping down from a point $B$ on an inclined plane $AB$,which is making an angle $\theta$ with the horizontal. The section $BC$ is smooth and the remaining section $CA$ is rough with a coefficient of friction $\mu$. It is found that the block comes to rest as it reaches the bottom (point $A$) of the inclined plane. If $BC = 2AC$,the coefficient of friction is given by $\mu = k \tan \theta$. The value of $k$ is

The minimum force required to move a body up an inclined plane is three times the minimum force required to prevent it from sliding down the plane. If the coefficient of friction between the body and the inclined plane is $\frac{1}{2 \sqrt{3}}$,then the angle of the inclined plane is (in $^{\circ}$)
