The angle of repose is equal to angle of friction
The tangent of the angle of repose is equal to coefficient of friction
All the above

Question No : 3
A body is said to move with Simple Harmonic Motion if its acceleration, is

Always directed away from the centre, the point of reference
Proportional to the square of the distance from the point of reference
Proportional to the distance from the point of reference and directed towards it
Inversely proportion to the distance from the point of reference

Question No : 4
The forces which meet at one point and have their lines of action in different planes are called

Coplanar non-concurrent forces
Non-coplanar concurrent forces
Non-coplanar non-current forces
Intersecting forces

Question No : 5
The Law of Polygon of Forces states that

If a polygon representing the forces acting at point in a body is closed, the forces are in equilibrium
If forces acting on a point can be represented in magnitude and direction by the sides of a polygon taken in order, then the resultant of the forces will be represented in magnitude and direction by the closing side of the polygon
If forces acting on a point can be represented of a polygon taken in order, their sides of a polygon taken in order, their resultant will be represented in magnitude and direction by the closing side of the polygon, taken in opposite order
If forces acting on a point can be represented in magnitude and direction by the sides of a polygon in order, the forces are in equilibrium

Question No : 6

60 kg
72 kg
None of these

Question No : 7
