Question of the Week 1

JEE Main Papers › Question Of the Week questions › Question of the Week 1

This is a good question from Resnick Halliday

Those who can will do it in a flash otherwise keep thinking for the whole day and you wont get it ;)

Find the maximum heap (Height) that sand can make in a circle of radius of R.

Coefficient of friction between sand particles is k.

Assume sufficient friction between sand and ground!

I will give a total guess.cuz i don't wanna waste my whole day in futile thinking. Is it âˆšR² -L² , where L is the slant ht of the cone so formed

2 things

1) R<L .. so your quantity is -ve

2) You even then had to find L.. L is not given!

Since the system is balanced.....
therefore max height h/R = tanÎ¸

but by def. tanÎ¸=k, since Î¸ is the angle of repose..

therefore....h=R*tanÎ¸
or h=R*k....
i think this should be the answer?
