An object takes \(n\) times as much time as to slide down a \(45^{\circ}\) rough inclined plane as it takes to slide down a perfectly smooth inclined plane of the same inclination. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the object and the rough incline is given by

  1. A \(\left(1-\frac{1}{n^2}\right)\)
  2. B \(\left(\frac{1}{1-n^2}\right)\)
  3. C \(\sqrt{1-\frac{1}{n^2}}\)
  4. D \(\sqrt{1+\frac{1}{n^2}}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(\left(1-\frac{1}{n^2}\right)\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

The coefficient of kinetic friction between the object and the rough incline \(\mu=\tan \theta\left(1-\frac{1}{n^2}\right)\) \(\mu=\tan 45^{\circ}\left(1-\frac{1}{n^2}\right)\) \(=1-\frac{1}{n^2}\)
