The minimum force required to start pushing a body up a rough (frictional coefficient μ ) inclined plane is F1 while the minimum force needed to prevent it from sliding down is F2 . If the inclined plane makes an angle θ with the horizontal such that tanθ=2μ,  then the ratio F1F2 is

a
4
b
1
c
2
d
3

detailed solution

Correct option is D

FUp=mgsin⁡θ+μkcos⁡θFdown =mgsin⁡θ−μkcos⁡θ
