Question
An uniform disc of mass m and radius R is rolling up a rough inclined plane of angle 30o If the coefficient of static and kinetic friction are each equal to μ and the only forces acting on disc are frictional, gravitational and normal reaction, then the value of μ for maximum magnitude of frictional force acting on disc is:
Options
A.

B.

C.

D.

Solution
      
It may happen when friction is up the plane and disc′s acm is down the plane. Equations of motion are:
acm =
  as θ = 30o
α =
For no slipping,
acm = Rα
⇒Â
⇒ f =
Now, f = fmax
= μmg cos 30o
μ =
