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.

This is a Long Answer type Questions as classified in NCERT Exemplar

Explanation- as angle is 45

On smooth inclined plane acceleration will be a = gsin θ

So acceleration will become a= g/ 2

Using equation of motion s =ut +1/2at2

S= 1 2 g 2 T 2

On rough inclined plane a = g (sin θ - μ c o s θ )

= g (sin 45 - μ c o s 45 )= g ( 1 - μ ) 2

So s=ut +1/2at2

S= 0+
