Two blocks $A$ and $B$ of equal mass are initially in contact when released from rest on an inclined plane. The coefficients of friction between the inclined plane and blocks $A$ and $B$ are $\mu_1$ and $\mu_2$ respectively.

  • A
    If $\mu_1 > \mu_2$,the blocks will always remain in contact.
  • B
    If $\mu_1 < \mu_2$,the blocks will slide down with different accelerations (if the blocks slide).
  • C
    If $\mu_1 > \mu_2$,the blocks will have a common acceleration $\frac{1}{2} (\mu_1 + \mu_2) g \sin \theta$.
  • D
    Both $(A)$ and $(B)$.

$A$ bob of mass $m$ is attached to a string of length $\ell$ whose other end is tied to a light vertical rod as shown in the figure. The bob is swinging in a horizontal plane with a constant angular speed $\omega$. The vertical rod is supported on a block of mass $M$ which is placed on a rough surface. What is the minimum friction coefficient between the ground and the block for which the block does not slip?

An inclined plane is bent in such a way that the vertical cross-section is given by $y = \frac{x^2}{4}$,where $y$ is in the vertical direction and $x$ is in the horizontal direction. If the upper surface of this curved plane is rough with a coefficient of friction $\mu = 0.5$,the maximum height in $cm$ at which a stationary block will not slip downward is............$cm$.
