$A$ cylindrical vessel filled with water is released on an inclined surface of angle $\theta$ as shown in the figure. The friction coefficient of the surface with the vessel is $\mu (< \tan \theta)$. Then the contact angle made by the surface of water with the incline will be

  • A
    $\tan ^{-1} \mu$
  • B
    $\theta-\tan ^{-1} \mu$
  • C
    $\theta+\tan ^{-1} \mu$
  • D
    $\cot ^{-1} \mu$

$A$ block of mass $2 \, kg$ is placed on a rough inclined plane as shown in the figure $(\mu = 0.2)$ so that it just touches the spring. The block is allowed to move downwards. The spring will be compressed to a maximum of .............. $cm$.

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 $g = 10 \text{ m/s}^2$)
