Starting from rest, a body slides down a 45 o inclined plane in twice the time it takes to slide down the same distance in the absence of friction. The coefficient of friction between the body and the inclined plane is
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
B
: The various forces acting on the body have been shown in the figure. The force on the body down the inclined plane in presence of friction 
is
or 
Since block is at rest thus initial velocity 
Time taken to slide down the plane
In absence of friction time taken will be
Given:
