At the instant shown, the 20-ft-long, uniform 100-lb pole ABC has an angular velocity of 1 rad/s counterclockwise and point C is sliding to the right. A 120-lb horizontal force P acts at B. Knowing the coefficient of kinetic friction between the pole and the ground is 0.3, determine at this instant (a) the acceleration of the center of gravity, (b) the normal force between the pole and the ground.
