A block of mass is resting on a rough inclined plane as shown in figure. The block is tied up by a horizontal string which has a tension of . Calculate the coefficient of friction between the block and inclined plane.



Important Questions on Friction
of force required to be applied on to slip on . Find the maximum horizontal force to be applied on so that and moves together.

Block of mass and block are attached to a rope which passes over a pulley. A force is applied horizontally to block , keeping it in contact with a rough vertical face. The coefficients of static and kinetic friction are and . The pulley is light and frictionless. In figure, the mass of block is set so that block is on the verge of slipping upward. The mass of block is ........

The block has mass and rests on a surface for which the coefficients of static and kinetic friction are and respectively. A force is applied to the cable. Velocity of block at is . Then value of is Given:

The coefficient of static and kinetic friction between the two blocks and also between the lower block and the ground are and . Find the value of tension applied on the lower block at which the upper block begins to slip relative to lower block.


The member rotates in vertical plane about a horizontal axis through with a constant counter clockwise velocity . As it passes the position , a small mass is placed upon it at a radial distance . If the mass is observed to slip at , find the coefficient of friction between the mass & the member.
