Solution

The correct option is C v=Pmgsinθ+μ mgcosθ
Since power applied is constant
=P=F×v.

Maximum velocity will be when net force applied is equal and opposite to the force on body along the inclined surface.

Net force
F=Fg+Ff=mgsinθ+μ×[N=mgcosθ].

Hence v=PF=Pmgsinθ+μmgcosθ is the maximum attainable velocity.
