$A$ small block starts slipping down from a point $B$ on an inclined plane $AB$,which is making an angle $\theta$ with the horizontal. The section $BC$ is smooth and the remaining section $CA$ is rough with a coefficient of friction $\mu$. It is found that the block comes to rest as it reaches the bottom (point $A$) of the inclined plane. If $BC = 2AC$,the coefficient of friction is given by $\mu = k \tan \theta$. The value of $k$ is

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

When a body is lying on a rough inclined plane and does not move,the force of friction

$A$ 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 $\frac{v_{0}}{2}$. The value of the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the inclined plane is close to $\frac{I}{1000}$. The nearest integer to $I$ is......
