### Problem Description

The x- and y-motions of guides A and B, which have right-angle slots, control the curvilinear motion of the connecting pin P. This pin slides within both slots.

For a short interval, the motions are governed by:
\[ x = 12 + 0.55t^2 \]
\[ y = 16 - 0.57t^3 \]

where x and y are in millimeters, and t is in seconds. 

#### Tasks:
1. Calculate the magnitudes of the velocity \( v \) and acceleration \( a \) of the pin for \( t = 2.5 \) seconds.
2. Sketch the direction of the path and indicate its curvature for this instance.

### Diagram Details

A diagram illustrates the mechanical setup:
- Two vertical and horizontal guides (A and B) control the pin P.
- The guides are connected by the pin P, which slides within the horizontal and vertical slots.
- The horizontal displacement \( x \) and the vertical displacement \( y \) are indicated and defined by the given equations.
  
### Solution Steps

#### Part 1
**Calculate the x- and y-components of the velocity.**

\[ v_x = \frac{dx}{dt} = 2.75 \text{ mm/s} \]
\[ v_y = \frac{dy}{dt} = -10.6785 \text{ mm/s} \]

**Answers:**

\[ v_x = 2.75 \text{ mm/s} \]
\[ v_y = -10.6785 \text{ mm/s} \]

### Visual Explanation

- The diagram shows the mechanical setup of pin P sliding through guides A and B.
- The x- and y-axes are clearly indicated, where displacement in the x-direction is governed by a quadratic equation and in the y-direction by a cubic equation.
