The time taken by a particle to slide do...

The time taken by a particle to slide down a smooth inclined plane is double the time it would take in falling down through a height equal to the vertical height of the plane. The inclination of the plane with horizontal is :

A

`30^(@)`

B

`45^(@)`

C

`60^(@)`

D

`90^(@)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

`((h)/(sin theta)) = (1)/(2) (g t_(1)^(2)) sin theta`
`h = (1)/(2) g t_(2)^(2)`
`t_(1) = 2t_(2)`
