Consider a block of mass placed on a rough inclined plane of angle of inclination . \nDue to the component of weight parallel to the incline, the block tends to slide down. So, friction acts on the block up the incline.
\n\n
When the block is at rest, static friction is equal to the driving force, i.e., \n
\n\n\n
\n
The angle of repose is defined as the angle at which the block is ready to slide down or in impending motion.
\n\n
When , the block is about to slide and the friction becomes the limiting friction. So,
\n\n
\n
\n\n
The angle of repose is independent of mass, it depends on the coefficient of friction. So, in all the given cases, sliding may occur.
