Statement I: Angle of repose is equal to the angle of limiting friction.
Statement II: When the body is just at the point of motion, the force of friction in this stage is called limiting friction.
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsD
Both Statement I and Statement II are correct.
The maximum value of static friction upto which body does not move is called limiting friction. Angle of repose is defined as the angle of the inclined plane with horizontal such that a body placed on it is just begins to slide.
In limiting friction, 
and 
where 
angle of repose.
