The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to analyze the motion of two blocks: one sliding down a smooth inclined plane and the other falling freely from the same height. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Define the Problem**: - We have a wooden block sliding down a smooth inclined plane starting from rest. It takes time \( t_1 \) seconds to reach the bottom and attains velocity \( V_1 \). - Another block of twice the mass falls freely from the same height and takes time \( t_2 \) seconds to reach the bottom, attaining velocity \( V_2 \). - The angle of inclination of the plane is \( 30^\circ \). 2. **Analyze the Block on the Inclined Plane**: - The height of the inclined plane is \( h \). - The length of the inclined plane \( l \) can be related to the height by \( h = l \cos(30^\circ) \). - The acceleration \( a \) of the block on the incline can be derived from the gravitational force component acting along the incline: \[ a = g \sin(30^\circ) = g \cdot \frac{1}{2} = \frac{g}{2} \] 3. **Use Kinematic Equations**: - Since the block starts from rest, we can use the kinematic equation: \[ V_1^2 = u^2 + 2as \] Here, \( u = 0 \), \( a = \frac{g}{2} \), and \( s = l \): \[ V_1^2 = 0 + 2 \cdot \frac{g}{2} \cdot l = g \cdot l \] - Thus, we have: \[ V_1 = \sqrt{g \cdot l} \] 4. **Relate Length \( l \) to Height \( h \)**: - From the relationship \( h = l \cos(30^\circ) \), we can express \( l \): \[ l = \frac{h}{\cos(30^\circ)} = \frac{h}{\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}} = \frac{2h}{\sqrt{3}} \] - Substituting \( l \) back into the equation for \( V_1 \): \[ V_1 = \sqrt{g \cdot \frac{2h}{\sqrt{3}}} = \sqrt{\frac{2gh}{\sqrt{3}}} \] 5. **Analyze the Free-Falling Block**: - For the block falling freely from height \( h \): \[ V_2^2 = u^2 + 2gh \] Here, \( u = 0 \): \[ V_2^2 = 0 + 2gh \implies V_2 = \sqrt{2gh} \] 6. **Determine Time Taken for Each Block**: - For the inclined block: \[ V_1 = u + at_1 \implies V_1 = 0 + \frac{g}{2} t_1 \implies t_1 = \frac{2V_1}{g} \] - For the free-falling block: \[ V_2 = u + gt_2 \implies V_2 = 0 + gt_2 \implies t_2 = \frac{V_2}{g} \] 7. **Relate \( t_1 \) and \( t_2 \)**: - From the expressions for \( t_1 \) and \( t_2 \): \[ t_1 = \frac{2V_1}{g} \quad \text{and} \quad t_2 = \frac{V_2}{g} \] - Since \( V_1 = \sqrt{\frac{2gh}{\sqrt{3}}} \) and \( V_2 = \sqrt{2gh} \), we can find the relationship between \( t_1 \) and \( t_2 \). 8. **Final Relationships**: - From the calculations, we find: \[ V_1 = V_2 \quad \text{and} \quad t_1 = 2t_2 \] ### Conclusion: - The correct relationships are \( V_1 = V_2 \) and \( t_1 = 2t_2 \).
