Question
Below is a sketch of the toy on a rotor ride at the moment after the floor drops. The rotor has a radius of R and the toy has mass m. Assume the
write Newton’s Second Law for the x and y directions.
Use algebra and your equations above to predict the minimum angular velocity ωmin necessary to keep the toy “stuck” to the side of the rotation tube. Express your answer in terms of g, μs, R. (nonumbers yet). Show all of your work and your final result below.

Astro and Clifford’s pull on the toy does not change, but Dug rims around and bites on the toy in a different place.
