A conveyor belt must accelerate the cans from rest to υ = 18 ft/s as quickly as possible. Treating each can as a uniform circular cylinder weighing 1.1 lb, find the minimum possible time to reach υ so that the cans do not tip or slip on the conveyer. Assume that the acceleration is uniform and use w = 2.71 in., h = 5 in.,and μs = 0.5.
