Calculation:

Substitute rBA for r, −175 mm for a, 0 for b and 0 for c in Equation (I).

rBA=(−175 mm)i+(0)j+(0)k=−(175 mm)i

Substitute rDB for r, 0 for a, −200 mm for b and 0 for c in Equation (I).

rDB=(0)i+(−200 mm)j+(0)k=(−200 mm)j

Substitute rDE for r, −275 mm for a, 75 mm for b and 0 for c in Equation (I).

rDE=(−275 mm)i+(75 mm)j+(0)k=−(275 mm)i+(75 mm)j

Substitute 4 rad/s for ω′AB in Equation (II).

ωAB=−(4 rad/s)k

Substitute 2 rad/s2 for a′AB in Equation (III).

aAB=−(2 rad/s2)k

Substitute −(4 rad/s)k for ωAB and −(175 mm)i for rBA in Equation (IV).

VB={−(4 rad/s)k}×{−(175 mm)i} ...... (X)

Here, the Equation (X) is the cross product of two vectors.

Change Equation (X) in determinant form.

VB=|ijk00−4 rad/s−175 mm00|=[{0−0}i−{0−((−4 rad/s)×−175 mm)}j−{0−0}k]=−(−700 mm⋅rad/s)j=(700 mm/s)j

Substitute (700 mm/s)j for VB, ωDBk for ωDB and (−200 mm)j for rDB in Equation (V).

(700 mm/s)=−ωDE(275 mm)ωDE=−(700 mm/s)(275 mm)ωDE=−2.545 rad/s

Compare the term of i on both sides of Equation (XIII) and substitute −2.545 rad/s for ωDE.

Substitute −(2 rad/s2)k for aAB, −(175 mm)i for rBA and (4 rad/s) for ω′AB in Equation (VI).

aB={−(2 rad/s2)k×−(175 mm)i}−(4 rad/s)2{−(175 mm)i}={−(2 rad/s2)k×−(175 mm)i}+(2800 mm/s2)i ...... (XIV)

(−200 mm)j for rDB and 0.954 rad/s for ωDB in Equation (VIII).

aD=[(350 mm/s2)j+(2800 mm/s2)i+{(aDB)k}×(−200 mm)j−(0.954 rad/s)2×{(−200 mm)j}]=[(2800 mm/s2)i+(350 mm/s2)j+{(aDB)k×(−200 mm)j}+(182.02 mm/s2)j] ...... (XV)

Here, the Equation (XV) is the cross product of two vector, now change it in determinant form.

aD=(2800 mm/s2)i+(350 mm/s2)j+|ijk00aDB0−200 mm0|+(182.02 mm/s2)j=[(2800 mm/s2)i+(350 mm/s2)j+{0−aDB×(−200 mm)}i−{0−0}j−{0−0}k+(182.02 mm/s2)j]=(2800 mm/s2)i+(350 mm/s2)j+(aDB×200 mm)i+(182.02 mm/s2)j={(2800 mm/s2)+(aDB×200 mm)}i+{532.02 mm/s2}j

Compare the term of j on both sides of Equation (XVII).

{532.02 mm/s2}=−{aDE(275 mm)+(485.78 mm/s2)}−(532.02 mm/s2)=aDE(275 mm)+(485.78 mm/s2)aDE(275 mm)=−(485.78 mm/s2)−(532.02 mm/s2)aDE=−1017.8 mm/s2275 mmaDE=−3.701 rad/s2
