A device for impact testing consists of a 34-kg pendulum with mass center at G and with radius of gyration about O of 620 mm. The distance b for the pendulum is selected so that the force on the bearing at O has the least possible value during impact with the specimen at the bottom of the swing. Determine b and calculate the magnitude of the total force R on the bearing O an instant after release from rest at θ = 60°
