    Linear Torque

    Need a help to calculate torque required to move the object shown in attached image.
    Presently have calculated using the formula shown below. Please help me.

    F= µmg
    Where µ is coefficient of friction b/w 2 objects, m is mass & g is acceleration due to gravity

    T= Fr
    Where r is the radius of the wheel
