2. Two rigid links are rotating in the horizontal plane as shown in the figure below. The left-most link rotates with angular rate ₁ of 4 rad/s. The end of the right-most link holds a pin which is confined to move along a slot in the other link. The length of the right-most link 12 is 0.45 m. Determine the angular rate ₂ of the second link at the instant shown. Use 0₁ = 30°, 0₂ = 60°, and r₁=0.6 m.

Question
2. Two rigid links are rotating in the horizontal plane as shown in the figure below. The left-most link rotates with an angular rate \(\dot{\theta}_1\) of 4 rad/s. The end of the right-most link holds a pin which is confined to move along a slot in the other link. The length of the right-most link \(r_2\) is 0.45 m. Determine the angular rate \(\dot{\theta}_2\) of the second link at the instant shown. Use \(\theta_1 = 30^\circ\), \(\theta_2 = 60^\circ\), and \(r_1 = 0.6\) m.

### Diagram Explanation:

A diagram is shown with two rigid links connected. The left-most link rotates with an angular motion denoted by the angle \(\theta_1\) and has an angular velocity \(\dot{\theta}_1\). The second link, which is the right-most one, is pinned and able to move along a slot on the first link, marked by an angle \(\theta_2\). The physical lengths of these links are labeled as \(r_1\) and \(r_2\). The angles and lengths form a geometric and kinematic arrangement that needs solving to find the angular rate \(\dot{\theta}_2\) of the second link. The angle \(\theta_1\) within the arrangement is set at \(30^\circ\), while \(\theta_2\) is set at \(60^\circ\), with each link having specified lengths of \(r_1 = 0.6\) m and \(r_2 = 0.45\) m.
