A wedge of inclination theta is placed ...

A wedge of inclination `theta ` is placed on a smooth surface. Ablock of mass m placed on the wedge is found to be stationary w.r.t the wedge . Select the correct alternative .

A

If the wedge is accelerating in -x direction the wedge surface must be rough

B

If the wedge is accelerating in x-y plane in a direction making angle `alpha` with the x - direction where `0 lt alpha lt (pi)/2 - theta` , the wedge may be smooth

C

Wedge may be accelerating along - y - direction . In this case, it may be smooth .

D

Wedge may be accelerating along z - direction . In this case, it must be rough enough
