    A 10 kg body slides down on an inclined plane with a force of 10 N. The minimum force to move up the plane is: (in N)

    A)  5                                            

    B)  10                         

    C)  15                         

    D)         20

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    The force, slides down an inclined plane of angle \[\alpha \] is \[=mg\sin \alpha .\] When it is kept stationary, therefore must be in upward direction. If the body moves up an inclined plane the minimum retardation is \[g\sin \alpha \]. Hence total upward force \[=2\,mg\sin \alpha =20N\]
