The angle of inclination of the plane, at which the body begins to move down the plane is called

A angle of friction
B angle of repose
C angle of projection
D none of the mentioned

Correct Answer: angle of repose

The angle of the inclined plane at which the body just begins to slide down the plane, is called angle of repose. The angle which the normal reaction makes with the resultant reaction is called angle of friction.

Mr. Ali decided to walk down the escalator of a tube station. He found that if he walks down 26 steps, he requires 30 seconds to reach the bottom. However, if he steps down 34 stairs he would only require 18 seconds to get to the bottom. If the time is measured from the moment the top step begins to descend to the time he steps off the last step at the bottom, find out the height of the stair way in steps?
A 23 steps
B 16 steps
C 46 steps
D 26 steps
