When a body slides down from rest along a smooth inclined plane making an angle of 45° with the horizontal, it takes time T. When the same body slides down from rest along a rough inclined plane making the same angle and through the same distance, it is seen to take time pT, where p is some number greater than 1. Calculate the co-efficient of friction between the body and the rough plane.

Explanation- as angle is 45
On smooth inclined plane acceleration will be a = gsin
So acceleration will become a= g/
Using equation of motion s =ut +1/2at2
S=
On rough inclined plane a = g (sin )
= g (sin )=
So s=ut +1/2at2
S= 0+ 2
Comparing two above distance
2=
So after solving we get
