In the diagram illustrated a block of mass M is at rest on a plane inclined at an angle \(\theta\) to the horizontal. As \(\theta\) increases, the velocity ratio of the plane

increases
decreases
remain the same
decreases and later increases

Explanation

The velocity ratio and therefore, the mechanical advantage of an inclined plane system increases as \(\theta\) decreases and vice-versa.
