PROBLEM 15.193
The L-shaped arm BCD rotates about the z axis with a constant
angular velocity @₁ of 5 rad/s. Knowing that the 150-mm-
radius disk rotates about BC with a constant angular velocity
@2 of 4 rad/s, determine (a) the velocity of Point A, (b) the
acceleration of Point A.
Answers:
V₁ =-(0.600 m/s)i + (0.750 m/s)j - (0.600 m/s)k
a=-(6.15 m/s²)i- (3.00 m/s²)j
