A potter's wheel having a radius 0.49 m and a moment of inertia of 12.6 kg · m2 is rotating freely at 48 rev/min. The potter can stop the wheel in 5.0 s by pressing a wet rag against the rim and exerting a radially inward force of 70 N. Find the effective coefficient of kinetic friction between the wheel and the wet rag?
