A body is moving down along an inclined plane of angle of inclination \(\theta\) The coefficient of friction between the body and the plane varies as\(\mu=0.5 x\), where x is the distance moved down the plane. The body will have the maximum velocity when it has travelled a distance x given by:
  1. \(x=2 \tan \theta\)
  2. \(x=\frac{2}{\tan \theta}\)
  3. \(x=\sqrt{2} \cot \theta\)
  4. \(x=\frac{\sqrt{2}}{\cot \theta}\)

Answer

(A) x=2
