$A$ block of mass $m$ is kept on a horizontal turntable at a distance $x$ from the center. If the coefficient of friction between the block and the surface of the turntable is $\mu$,what is the maximum angular speed of the table so that the block does not slip?

  • A
    $\sqrt{\frac{\mu g}{x^2}}$
  • B
    $\sqrt{\frac{\mu g}{x}}$
  • C
    $\sqrt{\frac{\mu g}{2x}}$
  • D
    $\sqrt{\frac{\mu x^2}{g}}$
