answer :
30
solotion:
angle of incline = θ.
Initially it is a smooth surface.
Let the mass be m. Gravity g.
Initial velocity = u = 0.
acceleration down the incline = a = g sinθ
time taken = T.
So length of incline = s = 1/2 * g sinθ * T² ---(1)
When there is dynamic friction of coefficient = μ,
friction force = f = μ N = μm g Cos θ
a = (sin θ - μ Cos θ) g
Time taken is = 2 T
So we get: s = 1/2 * g (sinθ - μ Cos θ) * (2T)² ---(2)
From (1) and (2) , we get
Sin θ = (sinθ - μ cosθ) 4
μ = Tanθ * 30
