There is an object, which slides down from rest along a smooth inclined plane making an angle of 45° with the horizontal, it takes time T. When the same body slides down from rest along a rough inclined plane making the same angle and through the same distance, it is seen to take time pT, where p is some number greater than one. The co–efficient of friction between the body and the rough plane is
  1. 1/p
  2. µ = (1 − 1/p2)
  3. 1/p2
  4. 2 − p

Answer

(B) µ = (1 − 1/ p 2 )
