$A$ block placed on a rough inclined plane of inclination $(\theta =30^o)$ can just be pushed upwards by applying $a$ force $"F"$ as shown. If the angle of inclination of the inclined plane is increased to $(\theta = 60^o)$, the same block can just be prevented from sliding down by application of a force of same magnitude. Thecoefficient of friction between the block and the inclined plane is
  • A$\frac{{\sqrt 3  + 1}}{{\sqrt 3  - 1}}$
  • B$\frac{{2\sqrt 3  - 1}}{{\sqrt 3  + 1}}$
  • C$\frac{{\sqrt 3  - 1}}{{\sqrt 3  + 1}}$
  • D
    None of these

    A block of mass $M$ rests on a rough horizontal table. A steadily increasing horizontal force is applied such that the block starts to slide on the table without toppling. The force is continued even after sliding has started. Assume the coefficients of static and kinetic friction between the table and the block to be equal. The correct representation of the variation of the frictional force $f$, exerted by the table on the block with time $t$ is given by
