A non-conducting ring of mass mm and radius RR has a charge QQ uniformly distributed over its circumference. The ring is placed on a rough horizontal surface such that plane of the ring is parallel to the surface. A vertical magnetic field B=B0t2B = B_0 t^2 tesla is switched on. After 2 s from switching on the magnetic field the ring is just about to rotate about vertical axis through its centre. a. - Find friction coefficient μ\mu between the ring and the surface. b. - If magnetic field is switched off after 4 s, then find the angle rotated by the ring before coming to stop after switching off the magnetic field.
