A 2-kg mass rests on a flat horizontal bar. The bar begins rotating in the vertical plane about O with a constant angular acceleration of 1 rad/s2. The mass is observed to slip relative to the bar when the bar is 30° above the horizontal. What is the static coefficient of friction between the mass and the bar? Does the mass slip toward or away from O?
