A smooth block is released at rest on a 450 incline and then slides a distance d. The time taken to slide is n times as much to slide on rough incline than on a smooth incline. The coefficient of friction is
When a bicycle is in motion, the force of friction exerted by ground on the two wheels is such that, it acts
In the backward direction on the front wheel and in the forward direction on the rear wheel.
In the forward direction on the front wheel and in the backward direction on the rear wheel.
In the backward direction on both the front and the rear wheels.
In the forward direction on both the front and the rear wheels.
A block is kept on a frictionless inclined surface with angle of inclination α. The incline is given an acceleration a to keep the block stationary. Then a is equal to
g / tanα
g cosecα
g
g tanα
The upper half of an inclined plane of inclination θ is perfectly smooth while the lower is rough.A body starting from rest at the top comes back to rest at the bottom,if the coeffecient of friction for the lower half is given by
μ = sin θ
μ = cotθ
μ = 2 cosθ
μ = 2 tanθ
To avoid slipping while walking on ice one should take smallest steps because of the
larger friction
larger normal reaction
smaller friction
smaller normal reaction
