A is connected by a light string passing over a frictionless pulley to another body B, also of mass m, sliding on a frictionless plane inclined at angle θ2 to the horizontal. Which of the following statements are true?

Laws of motion

A A will never move up the plane.
B A will just start moving up the plane when
μ = sin θ2 – sin θ1 / cos θ1
