  • A
    left half
  • B
    right half
  • C
    both applies equal pressure
  • D
    the answer depends upon the coefficient of friction

To determine the coefficient of friction between a rough surface and a block, the surface is kept inclined at $45^{\circ}$ and the block is released from rest. The block takes a time $t$ in moving a distance $d$. The rough surface is then replaced by a smooth surface and the same experiment is repeated. The block now takes a time $t/2$ in moving down the same distance $d$. The coefficient of friction is

$A$ block of mass $M$ is sliding down an inclined plane. An external force $F$ is applied vertically downwards on the block. The coefficient of static friction is $\mu_s$ and the coefficient of kinetic friction is $\mu_k$. The friction force acting on the block is:

$A$ body is sliding down a rough inclined plane. The coefficient of friction between the body and the plane is $0.5$. The ratio of the net force required for the body to slide down and the normal reaction on the body is $1:2$. Then the angle of the inclined plane is (in $^{\circ}$)

$A$ block rests on a rough inclined plane making an angle of $30^{\circ}$ with the horizontal. The coefficient of static friction between the block and the plane is $0.8$. If the frictional force on the block is $10 \, N$,the mass of the block (in $kg$) is (take $g = 10 \, m/s^2$).

$A$ block of mass $10 \,kg$ is kept on a fixed rough $(\mu=0.8)$ inclined plane of angle of inclination $30^{\circ}$. The frictional force acting on the block is ........... $N$.
