$A$ cube of mass $m$ slides down an inclined right-angle trough. If the coefficient of kinetic friction between the cube and the trough is $\mu_k$,then the acceleration of the block is:

  • A
    $g(\sin \theta - \mu_k \cos \theta)$
  • B
    $\sqrt{2} g(\sin \theta - \mu_k \cos \theta)$
  • C
    $\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} g(\sin \theta - \mu_k \cos \theta)$
  • D
    $g(\sin \theta - \sqrt{2} \mu_k \cos \theta)$

To determine the coefficient of friction between a rough surface and a block, the surface is kept inclined at $45^{\circ}$ and the block is released from rest. The block takes a time $t$ in moving a distance $d$. The rough surface is then replaced by a smooth surface and the same experiment is repeated. The block now takes a time $t/2$ in moving down the same distance $d$. The coefficient of friction is

$A$ body takes $n$ times as much time to slide down a $45^{\circ}$ rough incline as it takes to slide down a smooth $45^{\circ}$ incline. The coefficient of friction between the body and the incline will be

If the coefficient of friction between the block of mass $m$ and the wedge is $\mu $,then the maximum horizontal acceleration of the wedge for which the block will remain at rest with respect to the wedge is

There are two inclined surfaces of equal length $(L)$ and the same angle of inclination $45^{\circ}$ with the horizontal. One of them is rough and the other is perfectly smooth. $A$ given body takes $2$ times as much time to slide down the rough surface than on the smooth surface. The coefficient of kinetic friction $(\mu_k)$ between the object and the rough surface is close to:

$A$ block is moving on an inclined plane making an angle $45^{\circ}$ with the horizontal and the coefficient of friction is $\mu$. The force required to just push it up the inclined plane is $3$ times the force required to just prevent it from sliding down. If we define $N=10 \mu$,then $N$ is
