Two blocks $A$ and $B$ are released from the top of a rough inclined plane so that $A$ slides along the plane and $B$ falls down freely. Which will have higher velocity on reaching the ground?

  • A
    $A$
  • B
    $B$
  • C
    Both will reach the ground with same velocity
  • D
    It depends on the coefficient of friction

Two blocks of masses $1 \ kg$ and $2 \ kg$ are connected by a light rod and the system is slipping down a rough incline at an angle of $45^{\circ}$ with the horizontal. The coefficient of kinetic friction at both contacts is $0.4$. If the acceleration of the system is $\alpha \sqrt{2} \ m/s^2$, find the value of $\alpha$. (Use $g = 10 \ m/s^2$)

$Assertion$: 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.

$A$ block is projected upwards on an inclined plane of inclination $37^{\circ}$ along the line of greatest slope with a coefficient of friction $\mu = 0.5$ and an initial velocity of $5 \ m/s$. The block first stops at a distance of .......... $m$ from the starting point.

Starting from rest,the time taken by a body sliding down on a rough inclined plane at $45^{\circ}$ with the horizontal is twice the time taken to travel on a smooth plane of the same inclination and same distance. Then the coefficient of kinetic friction is

$A$ block of base $10 \ cm \times 10 \ cm$ and height $15 \ cm$ is kept on an inclined plane. The coefficient of friction between them is $\sqrt{3}$. The inclination $\theta$ of this inclined plane from the horizontal plane is gradually increased from $0^{\circ}$. Then
