Friction on horizontal surface
Question

A block of mass l0 kg in contact against the inner wall of a hollow cylindrical drum of radius I m. The coefficient of friction between the block and the inner wall of the cylinder is 0.1. The minimum angular velocity needed for the cylinder to keep the block stationary when.the cylinder is vertical and rotating about its axis, will be (g = l0 m/s2)

Moderate
Solution

fL = μN = μmrω2

fs = mg

fs  fL     mg  μmrω2

 ω  gμr  ωmin = 10 rad/s
