A ramp is constructed with a parabolic shape such that the height at any point on its surface is given in terms of its horizontal distance from the bottom of the ramp by . A small block is to be set on the ramp. The maximum height from the bottom level at which the block can be kept on the ramp without sliding is (Given that ).




Important Questions on Friction
Two blocks and of equal masses are sliding down along straight parallel lines on an inclined plane of . Their coefficients of kinetic friction are and , respectively. At , both the blocks are at rest and block is behind block . The time and distance from the initial position where the front faces of the blocks come in line on the inclined plane as shown in figure. (Use, .)


Two blocks and are connected by a weightless rod on a plane having inclination of . The coefficient of dynamic friction of and with the inclined plane are, . Then, the common acceleration of the two blocks and the tension in the rod are,

A force is applied to block as shown in the figure. The force is applied at when the system was at rest and string is just straight without tension. Which of the following graphs gives the force between and horizontal surface as a function of time

If the coefficient of friction between and is the maximum horizontal acceleration of the wedge for which will remain at rest with respect to the wedge is:

Assertion: While drawing a line on a paper, friction force acts on paper in the same direction along which line is drawn on the paper.
Reason: Friction always opposes motion.
