$A$ uniform cylinder of radius $1 \,m$, mass $1 \,kg$ spins about its axis with an angular velocity $20 \,rad/s$. At a certain moment, the cylinder is placed into a corner as shown in the figure. The coefficient of friction between the horizontal wall and the cylinder is $\mu$, whereas the vertical wall is frictionless. If the number of rounds made by the cylinder is $5$ before it stops, then the value of $\mu$ is (acceleration due to gravity, $g=10 \,m/s^2$)
