Q.

A small disc P is placed on an inclined plane forming an angle θ with the horizontal and imparted an initial velocity v0. Find how the velocity of disc depends on the angle ϕ  which its velocity vector makes with x axis (see figure). The coefficient of friction is μ=tanθ and   ϕinitial=π2.

Normal reaction on the particle is always N=mg cosθ  
Question Image
Friction force on the particle is f=μmgcosθ and is always opposite of instantaneous velocity. Another force on the particle in the plane of the incline is mgsinθ which is always directed along x direction. Force on the particle in tangential direction ( i.e., in direction of its velocity) is 
Ft=mgsinθ.cosϕμmgcosθ
Acceleration in tangential direction is 
at=gsinθ(cosϕ1)[μ=tanθ]    ………….(a)
Similarly, acceleration of disc along x-direction is 
ax=gsinθ(μgcosθ)cosϕ
=gsinθ(1cosϕ)   ………..(b)
at+ax=0                      [Adding (a) and (b) ]
Integrating, we get
v+vx=c                           [c is constant]
But  vx=vcosϕ 
v+vcosϕ=c
Initially  ϕ=π2;v=v0
c=v0v=v01+cosϕ
