let the normal reaction from the wall be N and from the wedge be N1 then
N=N_{1}sin\theta
\mu N+N_{1}cos\theta =mg
\Rightarrow N = \frac{mg}{\mu +cot\theta }
perhaps not so good question unless you move the wedge :P
.
A sphere is rotating between a rough wall and a smooth wedge as shown in the fig. If u is the coefficient of friction between then find the normal reaction between the wall and the sphere.
This is a good problem...
Try to draw the fbd.. that is the most important thing...
Here friction will reduce/ Increase normal reaction... Try to do that.. otherwise I will fill the proof..

Now in the same problem try and find the number of turns before it stops..
given initial angular velocity is ω0
