The pipe has a mass M = 460 kg and is held in place on the truck bed using the two boards A and B. Determine the acceleration of the truck so that the pipe begins to lose contact at A and the bed of the truck and starts to pivot about B. Assume board B will not slip on the bed of the truck, and the pipe is smooth. Also, what force does board B exert on the pipe during the acceleration? B 0.4 m -0.5 m -0.3 m

Question
The pipe has a mass M = 460 kg and is held in place on the truck bed using the two boards A and
B. Determine the acceleration of the truck so that the pipe begins to lose contact at A and the
bed of the truck and starts to pivot about B. Assume board B will not slip on the bed of the truck,
and the pipe is smooth. Also, what force does board B exert on the pipe during the acceleration?
0.4 m
-0.5 m
0.3 m
