$A$ child is on a merry-go-round,standing at a distance $2 \ m$ from the centre. The coefficient of static friction between the child and the surface of the merry-go-round is $0.8$. At what maximum angular velocity can the merry-go-round be rotated before the child slips (in $rad/s$)? (Take $g = 10 \ m/s^2$)

  • A
    $0.5$
  • B
    $1$
  • C
    $2$
  • D
    $4$
