Water is poured into a large barrel whose height is 2.0 m and which has a cylindrical, 3.0-cm-diameter cork stuck into the side at a height of 0.50 m above the ground. As the water level in the barrel just reaches maximum height, the cork flies out of the barrel.

a)  What was the magnitude of the static friction force between the barrel and the cork?


b)  If the barrel were filled with seawater, would the cork have flown out before the barrel's full capacity was reached?
