A turning wheel is revolving at 30.0rpm (revolutions per minute). A small metal block of mass 0.245 kg is sitting at a distance 20.0 cm from the center of the wheel. The coefficient of static friction between the wheel and the block is μ=0.280. 1. What is the friction force on the block?Assume the block does not slide. 2. What is the maximum revolving rate of the wheel (in rpm) before the block starts to slide?
