Per NCERT Example 4.8 (inclined plane), if a mass just starts to slide at angle θ = 15°, the coefficient of static friction is which?

Acos 15° ≈ 0.97
Btan 15° ≈ 0.27
Csin 15° ≈ 0.26
D1.00
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: B. tan 15° ≈ 0.27
NCERT Ex 4.8: at impending slip, mg sin θ = μ_s mg cos θ ⇒ μ_s = tan θ = tan 15° ≈ 0.27.
