An inclined slide of inclination pi/6 has a cross section as shown ( two quarter circular cylinders in contact).The minimum width w of a sledge that can slide down is [ coeff of fric = (sqrt 3)/4]..............................

ohhhh....... wonderful question, i must say my answer is r/2. lets see if i can give a satisfactory solution. it goes this way.............. consider the cross-section u gave, assume angle @ to be the angle between the horizontal and the tip of the sledge(as seen from the centre of one of the quarters) now N be the normal reaction from each 2Ncos@=mg cos pi/6 (balancing perpen. to inclined)(cos@ because the two sin components cancel from the 2 surfaces) friction = u*(mg(cospi/6)/cos@) putting friction=mg sin pi/6 we get cos@=3/4 and trigo gives the width=r/2 uhhhhh.......that was long but i think if @ increases, it stops sliding therefore width is maximum that can slide down, not the minimum please check the question again

The diagram given by vasanth is correct. Try to visualize it. I will tell you how. First consider two cylinders with their cross sections gradually decreasing from one end to the other. Now cut each cylinders into four equal quarters just as a birthday-boy/girl cuts down the cake. Take one quarter from each cylinder and rest each of these on any of their cut edges. bring them close so that they touch each other. Now it is found that the top surface of these quarter-cylinders is pi/6. put the slide in the narrow grove that is created. While uploading the picture files, the serial order of the files was mixed up. So, I am giving diagram numbers on the pictures.
