$A$ rocket is fired vertically from the earth with an acceleration of $2g,$ where $g$ is the gravitational acceleration. On an inclined plane inside the rocket,making an angle $\theta$ with the horizontal,a point object of mass $m$ is kept. The minimum coefficient of friction $\mu_{min}$ between the mass and the inclined surface such that the mass does not move is

  • A
    $\tan 2\theta$
  • B
    $\tan \theta$
  • C
    $3\tan \theta$
  • D
    $2\tan \theta$

An insect crawls up a hemispherical surface very slowly. The coefficient of friction between the insect and the surface is $1/3$. If the line joining the centre of the hemispherical surface to the insect makes an angle $\alpha$ with the vertical,the maximum possible value of $\alpha$ so that the insect does not slip is given by

In the above question,the speed of the mass when it has traveled half the maximum distance is:

$A$ solid hemisphere of weight $P$ rests with its curved surface in contact with a rough inclined plane. $A$ weight $Q$ is placed at some point on the rim of the hemisphere to keep its plane surface horizontal. Then its minimum coefficient of friction 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).

$Assertion$: Mountain roads rarely go straight up the slope.
$Reason$: The slope of mountains is large,therefore there are more chances for a vehicle to slip from the roads.
