A small block slides down from rest at point $A$ on the surface of a smooth cylinder, as shown. At point $B$, the block falls off (leaves) the cylinder. The equation relating the angles $\theta_1$ and $\theta_2$ is given by

819-294

  • A

    $sin\ \theta_2 = \frac{2}{3}sin\ \theta_1$

  • B

    $sin\ \theta_2 = \frac{3}{2}sin\ \theta_1$

  • C

    $cos\ \theta_2 = \frac{2}{3}cos\ \theta_1$

  • D

    $cos\ \theta_2 = \frac{3}{2}cos\ \theta_1$
