In the diagram illustrated a block of mass M is at rest on a plane inclined at an angle \(\theta\) to the horizontal. As \(\theta\) increases, the velocity ratio of the plane
Attached Figure / Diagram
A
increases
B
decreases
C
remain the same
D
decreases and later increases
Verified Correct Answer: B.
Physical Principles & Numerical Solution
The velocity ratio and therefore, the mechanical advantage of an inclined plane system increases as \(\theta\) decreases and vice-versa.
