Part A The "eggbeater" wind turbine is stopped by using spoilers which consist of 20-lb blocks that slide out along the blades when the blades are turning. As the spoilers travel along the blade, they create a drag on the blade that slows and eventually stops the blade. The blade has the shape of a parabola, as shown in (Figure 1). The coefficient of static friction between the spoilers and the blades is μ=0.3. If it is observed that the spolers reach point A on the blade, determine the required minimum speed of the spoilers needed to maintain this position.
