Case-1 : No friction $\begin{aligned} & \mathrm{a}=\mathrm{g} \sin \theta \\ & \ell=\frac{1}{2}(\mathrm{~g} \sin \theta) \mathrm{t}_1^2 \\ & \mathrm{t}_1=\sqrt{\frac{2 \ell}{\mathrm{g} \sin \theta}} \end{aligned}$ Case-2 : With friction $\begin{aligned} & \mathrm{a}=\mathrm{g} \sin \theta-\mu \mathrm{g} \cos \theta \\ & \ell=\frac{1}{2}(\mathrm{~g} \sin \theta-\mu \mathrm{g} \cos \theta) \mathrm{t}_2^2 \\ & \sqrt{\frac{2 \ell}{\mathrm{g} \sin \theta-\mu g \cos \theta}}=\mathrm{n} \sqrt{\frac{2 \ell}{\mathrm{g} \sin \theta}} \\ & \mu=1-\frac{1}{\mathrm{n}^2} \end{aligned}$
