The horizontal acceleration that should be given to a smooth inclined plane of angle \(\sin ^{-1}\left(\frac{1}{l}\right)\) to keep an object stationary on the plane, relative to the inclined plane is :

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

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(\frac{g}{\sqrt{l^2-1}}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Let horizontal acceleration given is \(a\) Horizontal force \(=m a \cos \theta\) \(\therefore m a \cos \theta=m g \sin \theta\) \(a=g \tan \theta\) \(=\frac{g}{\sqrt{l^2-1}}\)
