An eccentric wheel with weight W = 250 lb, mass center G, and radius of gyration kG = 1.32 ft is initially at rest in the position shown. Letting R = 1.75 ft and h = 0.8 ft, and assuming that the wheel is gently nudged to the right and rolls without slip, determine the speed of O when G is closest to the ground.
