A block of mass \(10 kg\) is in contact against the inner wall of a hollow cylindrical drum of radius \( 1 m.\) 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: (\(g=10 \frac{m}{s^2}\)
- \(\sqrt10\ rad/s\)
- \(\frac{10}{2\pi}\ rad/s\)
- \(10\ rad/s\)
- \(10\pi\ rad/s\)
The Correct Option is C

A wheel of mass \( 4M \) and radius \( R \) is made of a thin uniform distribution of mass \( 3M \) at the rim and a point mass \( M \) at the center. The spokes of the wheel are massless. The center of mass of the wheel is connected to a horizontal massless rod of length \( 2R \), with one end fixed at \( O \), as shown in the figure. The wheel rolls without slipping on horizontal ground with angular speed \( \Omega \). If \( \vec{L} \) is the total angular momentum of the wheel about \( O \), then the magnitude \( \left| \frac{d\vec{L}}{dt} \right| = N(MR^2 \Omega^2) \). The value of \( N \) (in integer) is:
