Current Attempt in Progress

The mass center $\backslash ($ G $\backslash )$ of the $\backslash (18-\backslash$mathrm$\{$lb$\}\backslash )$ wheel is off center by $0\mathrm{.}6$ in $.$ If G is in the position shown as the wheel rolls without slipping through the bottom of the circular path of $5\mathrm{.}8-$ft radius with an angular velocity $\backslash (\backslash$omega $\backslash )$ of $\backslash (12\backslash$mathrm$\{$rad$\}/\backslash$mathrm$\{$sec$\}\backslash ),$ compute the force $\backslash ($ P $\backslash )$ exerted by the path on the wheel. $($Be careful to use the correct mass$-$center acceleration.$)$

Answer: $\backslash ($ P$=\backslash )$ Ib
