A drum of radius R and mass M ,rolls down without slipping along an inclined plane of angle θ.The frictional force
converts translational energy to rotational energy
dissipates energy as heat
decreases the rotational motion
decreases the rotational and translational motion

A block of mass m is on an inclined plane of angle θ. The coefficient of friction between the block and the plane is μ and tanθ>μ. The block is held stationary by applying a force P parallel to the plane. The direction of force pointing up the plane is taken to be positive. As P is varied from P1 = mg(sinθ-μcosθ) to P2 = mg(sinθ+μcosθ), the frictional force f versus P graph will look like
