Question

A uniform rectangular solid of side length L and width w placed on a frictionless incline of variable angle, theta. Assume that there is a very tiny peg preventing the box from sliding down the incline at the point labeled P. At what angle of incline will the box begin to tip over?

  1. theta equals s i n to the power of negative 1 end exponent invisible function application open parentheses fraction numerator L over denominator w end fraction close parentheses    
  2. theta equals c o s to the power of negative 1 end exponent invisible function application open parentheses fraction numerator L over denominator w end fraction close parentheses    
  3. theta equals t a n to the power of negative 1 end exponent invisible function application open parentheses fraction numerator L over denominator w end fraction close parentheses    
  4. theta equals c o t to the power of negative 1 end exponent invisible function application open parentheses fraction numerator L over denominator w end fraction close parentheses    

The correct answer is: theta equals s i n to the power of negative 1 end exponent invisible function application open parentheses fraction numerator L over denominator w end fraction close parentheses

Two particles A and B of mass 5 kg and 9 kg respectively rest on the smooth faces of a fixed wedge as shown in the figure. They are connected by a light inextensible string passing over a smooth pulley at C and are released from rest from the position shown in the diagram. In the subsequent motion B hits the ground and does not rebound. Find
