There are two inclined surface of equal length (L) and same angle of inclination 45^ with the horizontal. One of them is rough and the other is perfectly smooth. A given body takes 2 times as much time to slide down on rough surface than on the smooth surface. The coefficient of kinetic friction ( _k ) between the object and the rough surface is close to :

Options

  1. A0.25
  2. B0.40
  3. C0.5
  4. D0.75

Correct answer

D. 0.75

Step-by-step solution

aligned & L= 1 2 a_S t_S^2= 1 2 a_R t_R^2 & ( t_ s t_R )^2= a_R a_ S & ( 1 2 )^2= g - _k g g & 1 4 = 45^ - _k 45^ 45^ & 1 4 = ( 1 2 ) ( 1 2 ) ( 1- _k 1 ) & 1 4 =1- _k _k=1- 1 4 = 3 4 =0.75 aligned
