The force is $= 235.2 N m$ $=235.2Nm$

The load L=(24g)N#

Radius of axle $r = 14 m$ $r=14m$

Radius of wheel $R = 14 m$ $R=14m$

Taking moments about the center of the axle

$F \cdot R = L \cdot r$ $F*R=L*r$

$F \cdot 14 = 24 \cdot g \cdot 14$ $F*14=24*g*14$

$F = \frac{24 \cdot g \cdot 14}{14} = 24 g = 235.2 N$ $F=(24*g*14)/14=24g=235.2N$
