A block of mass is in contact against the inner wall of a hollow cylindrical drum of radius. The coefficient of friction between the block and the inner wall of the cylinder is . 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 ,
Options
- A
- B
- C
- D
Correct answer
C.
Step-by-step solution
N = m{ω}^{2}R
For minimum angular velocity,
f = μN
mg = μ · m{ω}^{2}R
ω = \sqrt{\dfrac{g}{μR}} = \sqrt{\dfrac{10}{0.1 × 1}} = 10rad{s}^{- 1}
