In Fig , a body A of mass m slides on plane inclined at angle θ1 to the horizontal and µ1 is the coefficient of friction between A and the plane. A is connected by a light string passing over a frictionless pulley to another body B, also of mass m, sliding on a frictionless plane inclined at angle θ2 to the horizontal. Which of the following statements are true?

(a) A will never move up the plane.

(b) A will just start moving up the plane when µ= s i n θ 2 - s i n θ 1 c o s θ 1  .

(c) For A to move up the plane, θ2 must always be greater than θ1 .

(d) B will always slide down with constant speed.

    This is a Multiple Choice Questions type Questions as classified in NCERT Exemplar

    Answer- b, c

    Explanation- when A starts moving up

    Mgsin θ 1 + f = m g s i n θ 2

    mgsin θ1 + μmgcosθ1 = mgsinθ2

    μ=sinθ2-sinθ1cosθ1

    When A moves downward f= mgsinθ2- mgsin θ1 so clearly θ2>θ1
