A block is kept on a smooth inclined plane of angle of inclination 30° that moves with a constant acceleration so that the block does not slide relative to the inclined plane. Let F 1 be the contact force between the block and the plane. Now the inclined plane stops and let F 2 be the contact force between the two in this case. Then F 1 /F 2 is -
