$A$ wheel of radius $0.5 \ m$ and a moment of inertia of $10 \ kg \cdot m^2$ is rotating freely at an angular speed of $70 \ rev/min$. The wheel can be stopped in $5.0 \ s$ by pressing a wet cloth against the rim and exerting a radially inward force of $88 \ N$. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the wheel and wet cloth is:

  • A
    $0.17$
  • B
    $0.33$
  • C
    $0.4$
  • D
    $0.6$
