(10 pts) What if the Death Star's power generator for the tractor beam started rotating when Obi-Wan (m = 70 kg) stepped on it at a radius of 2 m? The platform would be initially at rest and have a constant angular acceleration of 0.5 rad/s2. If the coefficient between the circular platform and Obi-Wan's shoes is 0.4, how long until he begins to slide off?
