An object takes $n$ times as much time to slide down a $45^{\circ}$ rough inclined plane as it takes to slide down a perfectly smooth inclined plane of the same inclination. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the object and the rough incline is given by:

  • A
    $\left(1-\frac{1}{n^2}\right)$
  • B
    $\left(\frac{1}{1-n^2}\right)$
  • C
    $\sqrt{1-\frac{1}{n^2}}$
  • D
    $\sqrt{1+\frac{1}{n^2}}$

$A$ block is moving on an inclined plane making an angle $45^{\circ}$ with the horizontal and the coefficient of friction is $\mu$. The force required to just push it up the inclined plane is $3$ times the force required to just prevent it from sliding down. If we define $N=10 \mu$,then $N$ is

There are two inclined surfaces of equal length $(L)$ and the same angle of inclination $45^{\circ}$ with the horizontal. One of them is rough and the other is perfectly smooth. $A$ given body takes $2$ times as much time to slide down the rough surface than on the smooth surface. The coefficient of kinetic friction $(\mu_k)$ between the object and the rough surface is close to:

$A$ car of weight $W$ is on an inclined road that rises by $100 \, m$ over a distance of $1 \, km$ and applies a constant frictional force $\frac{W}{20}$ on the car. While moving uphill on the road at a speed of $10 \, m/s$,the car needs power $P$. If it needs power $\frac{P}{2}$ while moving downhill at speed $v$,then the value of $v$ is ........ $m/s$.

$A$ block kept on a rough surface starts sliding when the inclination of the surface is $\theta$ with respect to the horizontal. The coefficient of static friction between the block and the surface is

The blocks are in equilibrium. The friction force acting on the $10 \, kg$ block is:
