Hi! I've never done a problem like this, but I think I understand it. If you scrutinize it, you can see that all the forces can be split into two components, the component that is tangential to the circle, and the component that is perpendicular. The tangential is torque, and the perpendicular is a linear force on the circle. The force in the middle is a radius of zero (a point, which has no tangent), it seems, so that is all perpendicular. Do you follow?
yes

Did you just draw the answer?
yeah
is it right
Depends, A or C? And why?
I can't tell which one for sure, sorry...
it should be A, coz large magnitude of force act on the vertical side than the horizontal
And you are just doing vector addition, because they're both linear.
I agree!
And there's no ground underneath it to complicate that :)
yeah its A...well done...!
okay thanks guys:)
You're welcome! Actually, you did all the work! :)
:)
guys i hve some more questions, do u mind helping me on it?
i ve actualy done it, but i need to make sure its correct,
