A plank with a box on it at one end is gradully raised about the other end. As the angle of inclination with the horizntal reaches `30^(@)` , the box starts to slip and slide `4.0m` down the plank in `4.0s` . The coefficients of static and knitic friction between the box and the plank will be, respectively.

A

0.4 and 0.3

B

0.6 and 0.6

C

0.6 and 0.5

D

0.5 and 0.6

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

When start sliding `mu_(s)=Tan theta=Tan 30^(@)`
`mu_(s)=0.58~~0.6`
After slipping
`S=ut+(1)/(2)at^(2)`
`4=(1)/(2)xxaxx16`
`a=(1)/(2)`
`a=g(sin 30-mu_(k)cos 30^(@))`
`mu_(k)=0.52~~0.5`
`=m_(2)(g-(m_(2)g-mum_(1)g)/(m_(1)+m_(2)))`
`m_(g)g((m_(1)+m_(2)-m_(2)+mum_(1))/(m_(1)+m_(2)))`
`=(m_(1)m_(2)g(1+mu))/(m_(1)+m_(2))`

A student wants to determine the coefficients of static frction and kinetic friciton between a box and a plank. She places the box on the plank and gradually raises on end on of the plank. When the angle of inclination with horizontal reaches 30^(@) , the box stars to slip, and it then slides 2.5m dwon the plank in 4.0 s at constant acceleration. What are (a) the coefficient of static frictio and (b) the coefficient of kinetic friction between the box and the plank ?

A wooden block is kept on a polished wooden plank whose inclination is increased gradully . The block starts slipping when the plank makes an angle of 25^(@) with the horizontal . However , once started , the block can continue with unifrom speed , if the inclination is reduced to 21 Calculate coefficient of static and dynamic friction between the block and the plank .

A wooden block is kept n a polished woden plank and the inclination of the plank is gradually increased. It is found that the block starts slipping when the pland makes an angle of 18^@ with the horizontal. However, once started the block can continue with uniform speed if the inclination is reduced to 15^@ . Find the coefficients of static and kinetic friction between the block and the plank.

Determine the maximum horizontal force F that may be applied to the plank of mass m for which the solid sphere does not slip as it begins to roll on the plank. The sphere has a mass M and radius R. The coefficient of static and kinetic friction between the sphere and the plank are mu_(s) and mu_( k) respectively.

A block is at rest on an inclined plane making an angle alpha with the horizontal . As the angle alpha of the incline is increased the block starts slipping when the angle of inclination becomes theta . The coefficient of static friction between the block and the surface of the inclined plane is or A body starts sliding down at an angle theta to the horizontal. Then the coefficient of friction is equal to

A long plank begins to move at t=0 and accelerates along a straight track wit a speed given by v=2t^(2) for 0le t le 2 (where v is in m/s and t is in second). After 2 sec the plane continues to move at the constant speed acquired. A small initially at rest on the plank begins to slip at t=1 sec and stops sliding at t=3 sec. If the coefficient of static friction and kinetic friction between the plank and the block is 0.s and 0.k (where s and k are digits) respectively, find s+k (take g=10m//s^(2) )
