Drawing a Free Body Diagram for Drainpipe in Forklift

[Specimen]

1. Hmm, I need to draw a Free Body Diagram for the picture posted below.



2. No relevant equations. Just a geometric diagram.



3. I've done what I think it could be using help from Wikipedia.

Could someone tell me if its right? Am I missing any other forces? The original object is a drainpipe held in the tines of a fork lift.

Thanks!

You have drawn only one normal force. Also, without the ring, the diagram is confusing, especially because we need to see the points where the ring is touching the two surfaces. Theta is not shown explicitly in the diagram. And what's the rectangle?

Freebody doesn't strictly imply nobody...

I would recommend double checking your diagram with the actual physical setup of the drainpipe in the forklift. It is important to accurately represent all the forces acting on the drainpipe in order to understand its behavior and potential risks. Some additional forces to consider may include the weight of the drainpipe itself, the friction between the drainpipe and the forklift tines, and any external forces such as wind or vibrations. It may also be helpful to label each force and indicate their directions to better visualize the overall forces acting on the drainpipe. Additionally, consulting with an engineer or experienced forklift operator may provide valuable insights and help ensure the accuracy of your diagram.
