A cylinder of weight `W` is resting on a `V-groove` as shown in figure.Draw its free body diagram.

A

Parallel to contact surface

B

Perpendicular to contact surface

C

At 60 degree to contact surface

D

Cannot be determined

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
The free body diagram of the cylinder is as shown in Fig. Here ,`w =` weight of cylinder and `N_(1)` and `N_(2)` are the normal reations between the cylinder and the two inclined walls.
