An object is placed on the surface of a smooth inclined plane of inclination . It takes time t to reach the bottom of the inclined plane. If the same object is allowed to slide down rough inclined plane of same inclination , it takes time nt to reach the bottom where n is a number greater than 1. The coefficient of friction  is given by -

A

`mu=tan theta(1-1//n^(2))`

B

`mu=cot theta(1-1//n^(2))`

C

`mu=tan theta(1-1//n^(2))^(1//2)`

D

`mu=cot theta(1-1//n^(2))^(1//2)`
