$A$ bob of mass $m$ is attached to a string of length $\ell$ whose other end is tied to a light vertical rod as shown in the figure. The bob is swinging in a horizontal plane with a constant angular speed $\omega$. The vertical rod is supported on a block of mass $M$ which is placed on a rough surface. What is the minimum friction coefficient between the ground and the block for which the block does not slip?

  • A
    $\frac{m \cos \theta}{m + M}$
  • B
    $\frac{m \tan \theta}{m + M}$
  • C
    $\frac{3m \tan \theta}{m + M}$
  • D
    $\frac{M \tan \theta}{m + M}$
