A brick of mass 2 kg begins to slide down on a plane inclined at an angle of 45 o with the horizontal. The force of friction will be
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
A
For angle of repose,
Friction =Component of weight along the plane
= $m g \sin \theta$ $= 2 \times 9.8 \times \sin 45^{o}$ $= 19.6 \sin 45^{\circ}$
