So we have an incline of slope θ, which is I circular motion around a pole with steady angular velocity ω. A body on the incline is at distance r frome the pole and stays at rest. Calculate the minimum friction coefficient so that it stays at rest. So I analyzed the forces in 2 different...

I believe that for the collision to happen it has to be : ##S_{1}+S_{2}\ge S##

The distance covered by the first box is :s1max=v²/2|a|=v²/2μg where a=-μg by second newtons law Similarly S2max=(2v)²/2|a|=4v²/2μg It gas to be s1max+s2max≥S => v²/2a +4v²/2a ≥s => 5v²≥2aS =>v²≥ 2μgS/5=> v≥√(2μgs/5) But this is in the possible solution, am I wrong somewhere? I appreciate your help
