A plank with a box on it at one end is gradually raised about the other end. As the angle of inclination with the horizontal reaches $30^o$, the box starts to slip and slides $4.0\, m$ down the plank in $4.0\,s$. The coefficients of static and kinetic friction between the box and the plank will be, respectively
  • A$0.4$ and $0.3$
  • B$0.6$ and $0.6$
  • C$0.6$ and $0.5$
  • D$0.5$ and $0.6$
