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:

$A$ uniform chain of total length $L$ is at rest,partially on an incline of angle $\theta = 30^{\circ}$ and partially hanging vertically. The coefficient of friction between the chain and the incline is $\mu = \frac{1}{2\sqrt{3}}$. Find the ratio $\frac{L_{\max}}{L_{\min}}$,where $L_{\max}$ is the maximum length of the chain on the incline and $L_{\min}$ is the minimum length of the chain on the incline such that the chain remains at rest.

Starting from rest,the time taken by a body sliding down on a rough inclined plane at $45^{\circ}$ with the horizontal is twice the time taken to travel on a smooth plane of the same inclination and same distance. Then the coefficient of kinetic friction is

$A$ body takes $n$ times as much time to slide down a $45^{\circ}$ rough incline as it takes to slide down a smooth $45^{\circ}$ incline. The coefficient of friction between the body and the incline will be

The force required to just move a body up an inclined plane is double the force required to just prevent the body from sliding down the plane. If the coefficient of friction is $\mu$,then the inclination $\theta$ of the plane is:
