Detailed Solution

Retardation in upward motion =g(sinθ+μcosθ)
 Force required just to move up 
Fup=mg(sinθ+μcosθ)
Similarly for down ward motion a
=g(sinθμcosθ)
 Force required just to prevent the body sliding dow,Force required just to prevent the body sliding dow,
Fdn=mg(sinθμcosθ)
According to problem Fup=2Fdn
mg(sinθ+μcosθ)=2mg(sinθμcosθ)
sinθ+μcosθ=2sinθ2μcosθ
3μcosθ=sinθtanθ=3μ
θ=tan1(3μ)
