In the given system, a block of mass m is resting on a board which makes an angle theta with the horizontal. What should be the minimum value of theta , so that the block just starts moving downwards? The coefficient of friction between the surfaces of the board and the block is mu .

The minimum value of acceleration of wedge for which the block start sliding on the wedge, is:

A block of mass m is placed on a rough inclined plane. The corfficient of friction between the block and the plane is mu and the inclination of the plane is theta .Initially theta=0 and the block will remain stationary on the plane. Now the inclination theta is gradually increased . The block presses theinclined plane with a force mgcostheta . So welding strength between the block and inclined is mumgcostheta , and the pulling forces is mgsintheta . As soon as the pulling force is greater than the welding strength, the welding breaks and the blocks starts sliding, the angle theta for which the block start sliding is called angle of repose (lamda) . During the contact, two contact forces are acting between the block and the inclined plane. The pressing reaction (Normal reaction) and the shear reaction (frictional force). The net contact force will be resultant of both. Answer the following questions based on above comprehension: Q. For what value of theta will the block slide on the inclined plane:

In the given figure if system is released from rest,then find the minimum value of coefficient of friction such that block A of mass 2m does not move.

A triangular prism of mass m placed on it is released from rest on a smooth inclined plane of inclination theta The block does not slip on the prism. Then

Block A of the mass M in the figure is released from rest when the extension in the spring is x_(0) . The maximum downwards displacement of the block is (assume x_(0) lt Mg//k ).

Block A in the figure is released from the rest when the extension in the spring is x_(0) . The maximum downward displacement of the block will be :
