$A$ football of radius $R$ is kept on a hole of radius $r$ (where the diameter of the hole is $2r$ and $r < R$) made on a plank kept horizontally. One end of the plank is now lifted so that it gets tilted,making an angle $\theta$ with the horizontal as shown in the figure. The maximum value of $\theta$ such that the football does not start rolling down the plank satisfies (figure is schematic and not drawn to scale) -

  • A
    $\sin \theta = \frac{r}{R}$
  • B
    $\tan \theta = \frac{r}{R}$
  • C
    $\sin \theta = \frac{r}{2R}$
  • D
    $\cos \theta = \frac{r}{2R}$
