The center of gravity G of a 1.5-kg unbalanced tracking wheel is located at a distance r = 18 mm from its geometric center B. The radius of the wheel is R = 60 mm and its centroidal radius of gyration is 44 mm. At the instant shown, the center B of the wheel has a velocity of 0.35 m/s and an acceleration of 1.2 m/s2, both directed to the left. Knowing that the wheel rolls without sliding and neglecting the mass of the driving yoke AB, determine the horizontal force P applied to the yoke.
