$A$ body is made to move up along an inclined plane of inclination $30^{\circ}$ and the coefficient of friction is $0.5$. Then its retardation is ($g$ = acceleration due to gravity).

$A$ block of a certain mass is placed on a rough inclined plane. The angle between the plane and the horizontal is $30^{\circ}$. The coefficients of static and kinetic friction between the block and the inclined plane are $0.6$ and $0.5$ respectively. Then,the magnitude of the acceleration of the block is [Take $g = 10 \ ms^{-2}$]

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

$A$ block of mass $5 \ kg$ is moving on an inclined plane which makes an angle of $30^{\circ}$ with the horizontal. The coefficient of friction between the block and the inclined plane surface is $\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}$. The force to be applied on the block so that the block will move down without acceleration is . . . . . . $N$.

$A$ block kept on a rough inclined plane,as shown in the figure,remains at rest up to a maximum force $2 \ N$ down the inclined plane. The maximum external force up the inclined plane that does not move the block is $10 \ N$. The coefficient of static friction between the block and the plane is: [Take $g = 10 \ m/s^2$]
