$A$ board is balanced on a rough horizontal semicircular log. Equilibrium is obtained with the help of the addition of a weight to one of the ends of the board when the board makes an angle $\theta$ with the horizontal. The coefficient of friction between the log and the board is:

  • A
    $\cos \theta$
  • B
    $\tan \theta$
  • C
    $\cot \theta$
  • D
    $\sin \theta$

The time taken by an object to slide down a $45^{\circ}$ rough inclined plane is $n$ times the time it takes to slide down a perfectly smooth $45^{\circ}$ inclined plane. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the object and the inclined plane is:

$A$ block of weight $1 \,N$ rests on an inclined plane of inclination $\theta$ with the horizontal. The coefficient of friction is $\mu$. The minimum force that has to be applied parallel to the inclined plane to make the body just move up the plane is

When the angle of inclination of an inclined plane is $\theta$,an object slides down with uniform velocity. If the same object is pushed up with an initial velocity $u$ on the same inclined plane,it goes up the plane and stops at a certain distance on the plane. Thereafter,the body:

$A$ uniform rod of mass $20 \ kg$ and length $5 \ m$ leans against a smooth vertical wall making an angle of $60^{\circ}$ with it. The other end rests on a rough horizontal floor. The friction force that the floor exerts on the rod is (take $g=10 \ m/s^2$)

$A$ block starts moving up an inclined plane of inclination $30^{\circ}$ with an initial velocity of $v_{0}$. It comes back to its initial position with velocity $\frac{v_{0}}{2}$.
