$A$ particle is placed at rest inside a hollow hemisphere of radius $R$. The coefficient of friction between the particle and the hemisphere is $\mu = \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}$. The maximum height up to which the particle can remain stationary is

  • A
    $\frac{R}{2}$
  • B
    $\left(1-\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\right) R$
  • C
    $\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} R$
  • D
    $\frac{3R}{8}$

$A$ block of mass $m$ is placed on a surface having a vertical cross-section given by $y = x^2 / 4$. If the coefficient of friction is $0.5$,the maximum height above the ground at which the block can be placed without slipping is:

$A$ 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).

Two inclined planes are placed as shown in the figure. $A$ block is projected from point $A$ of the inclined plane $AB$ along its surface with a velocity just sufficient to carry it to the top point $B$ at a height of $10 \ m$. After reaching point $B$, the block slides down the inclined plane $BC$. The time it takes to reach point $C$ from point $A$ is $t(\sqrt{2}+1) \ s$. The value of $t$ is........
