The minimum force required to start pushing a body up a rough (frictional coefficient $\mu$) inclined plane is $F_1$,while the minimum force needed to prevent it from sliding down is $F_2$. If the inclined plane makes an angle $\theta$ with the horizontal such that $\tan \theta = 2 \mu$,then the ratio $\frac{F_1}{F_2}$ is:

  • A
    $4$
  • B
    $1$
  • C
    $2$
  • D
    $3$
