A uniform rod is placed on two spinning wheels as shown in figure. The axes of the wheels ore separated by a distance i = 20 cm, the coefficient of friction between the rod and the wheels is k = 0.18. Demonstrate that in this case the rod performs harmonic oscillations. Find the period of these oscillations.
