A block of mass $4\, kg$ rests on an inclined plane. The inclination of the plane is gradually increased. it is found that when the inclination is $3$ in $5\left( {\sin \theta  = \frac{3}{5}} \right)$, the block just begins to slide down the plane. The coefficient of friction between the block and the plane is
  • A$0.4$
  • B$0.6$
  • C$0.8$
  • D$0.75$
