Question

A wooden block sliding down from the top of a smooth inclined plane starting from rest takes t1 seconds to reach the bottom of the plane and attains velocity v1. Another block of twice the mass falling freely in air from the same height takes t2 seconds to reach the bottom of the plane and attains velocity v2. If the angle of inclination of the plane is 300, then

Solution

The correct option is C v1=v2 and t1=2t2
The velocity attained will be same since the heights are same. But the acceleration for the vertical fall is g, and for the sliding wooden block it will be g sin30o=0.5g.
v1=v2,t1=2t2
