Two inclined planes are placed as shown in figure. A block is projected from the point A of inclined plane AB along its surface with a velocity just sufficient to carry it to the top point B at a height 10 m. After reaching the point B the block sides down on inclined plane BC. Time it takes to reach to the point C from point A is t(√2 + 1) s. The value of t is ______. (Use g = 10 m/s2)
