The normal force is always (underline, bold) is always perpendicular to the surface an object is sitting on. If the object is on an inclined plane, then the normal will not be vertical but it will be perpendicular to the angle of the incline.
The diagram below (left) shows a normal force (GH) that is not vertical, but it is perpendicular to the surface. The object on the right is the more usual normal a mass on a table top.
The vertical line on the right is the normal and it points up.

Answer:
62.64 RPM.
Explanation:
Given that
m= 4.6 g
r= 19 cm
μs = 0.820
μk = 0.440.
The angular speed of the turntable = ω rad/s
Condition just before the slipping starts
The maximum value of the static friction force =Centripetal force
Therefore the speed in RPM will be 62.64 RPM.
