Can anyone help me with these questions please
**Problem Statement:**

At the instant shown, cable \( AB \) has a velocity of \( 3 \, \text{m/s} \) and acceleration of \( 1.5 \, \text{m/s}^2 \), while the gear rack \( C \) has a velocity of \( 1.3 \, \text{m/s} \) and acceleration of \( 0.65 \, \text{m/s}^2 \) (Figure 1).

**Part A:**

Determine the angular acceleration of the gear at this instant.

Express your answer to three significant figures and include the appropriate units.

**Diagram Description:**

- **Gear System:**
  - A circular gear is shown with a radius of \( 0.3 \, \text{m} \).
  - Attached to the gear is a cable \( AB \) which is horizontal with a section marked \( B \) having a distance of \( 0.2 \, \text{m} \) from the gear center \( O \).

- **Gear Rack System:**
  - Below the gear, there is a horizontal gear rack labeled \( C \).
  - Velocity (\( v_C \)) and acceleration (\( a_C \)) vectors are shown along the rack in the horizontal direction.

- **Notation:**
  - \( a_B \) and \( v_B \) denote the acceleration and velocity of point \( B \) on cable \( AB \).
  - \( a_C \) and \( v_C \) denote the acceleration and velocity of the gear rack \( C \).

**Input Boxes for Solution:**

- Boxes are provided to enter the calculated angular acceleration value (\( \alpha \)) and its units.

**Instructions:**

- Use the provided data and diagram to determine the angular acceleration.
- Be sure to express your answer in proper units and to three significant figures before submitting your solution.
