    Rubber on a rotating disk (angular velocity, forces)

    Thank all of you for your help. I think all the professor expects from us, is this "simplified, ideal" solution of the problem. I equated the equations , and I got the square root of ((μ*g)/r) as a solution for the angular speed above which the rubber will fly off the disk.
