Dynamics of a solid body

Problem 1.249

A uniform disc of radius \(R\) is spinned to the angular velocity \(\omega\) and then carefully placed on a horizontal surface. How long will the disc be rotating on the surface if the friction coefficient is equal to \(k\) ? The pressure exerted by the disc on the surface can be regarded as uniform.
