Q. A penny of mass 3.1g rests on a small 20g block supported by a spinning disk. The coefficients of friction between the block and disk are 0.75 (static) and 0.64 (kinetic) while those for the penny and the block are 0.520 (static) and 0.450 (kinetic). What is the maximum rate of rotation that disk can have, without the block or penny sliding on the disk.
