A block takes \(t\) time to slide down a plane inclined at \(45^\circ\) to the horizontal. If the surface is made smooth (frictionless), the block takes time \(\dfrac{t}{2}\) to slide down the plane. The coefficient of friction between the block and the inclined plane is \(\left(\frac{\alpha}{100}\right).\) The value of \(\alpha\) is:
