The two collars are connected by a cord running over a pulley that is attached to the frame at O and a stop prevents collar B from moving. The frame is rotating at the rate 0 =12 rad/s and r= 0.6 ft when the stop is removed allowing collar A to move out along rod OE . Neglecting friction and the mass of the frame, determine, for the position r= 1.2 ft, (a) the transverse component of the velocity of collar A, (b) the tension in the cord and the acceleration of collar A relative to the rod OE.arrow_forwardA 120 lb., 55-year-old female lifts a box with weight of 18 pounds from a position on the floor to a conveyor whose surface height is 25 inches from the floor.
