$A$ hollow cylinder of mass $m$ and radius $R$ is spinned to a clockwise angular velocity $\omega_0$ and then gently placed on an inclined plane for which the coefficient of friction is $\mu = \tan \theta$,where $\theta$ is the angle of the inclined plane with the horizontal. The centre of mass of the cylinder will remain stationary for time:

  • A
    $\omega_0 R / (g \sin \theta)$
  • B
    $2\omega_0 R / (3g \sin \theta)$
  • C
    $2\omega_0 R / (5g \sin \theta)$
  • D
    $\omega_0 R / (2g \sin \theta)$
