Answer:
R = 27.4N
Step-by-step explanation:
The reaction force supported by the pin at B is an horizontally acting force. This force is equal but opposite in direction to the restoring force. The restoring force acts to the left tangential to the arc while this reaction acts to the right.
Given m= 3.4kg, θ = 58°, g = 9.8m/s
R = mgSinθ = 3.4×9.8×sin58°
R = 27.4N
