Explanation Let the constant-coefficient homogeneous equation of the general form is y ″ ( t ) + p y ′ ( t ) + q y ( t ) = 0 where p and q are constants and the characteristic equation is of the form r 2 + p r + q = 0 and the solution of the differential equation of the form y = e r t . If p 2 − 4 q = 0 , then the only root of the characteristic polynomial is r 1 = − p 2 . Therefore the solutions of the equation y ″ ( t ) + p y ′ ( t ) + q y ( t ) = 0 is y 1 = c 1 e r 1 t and y 2 = v ( t ) e r</

This question builds on an earlier problem. The randomized numbers may have changed, but have your work for the previous problem available to help with this one. A 4-centimeter rod is attached at one end to a point A rotating counterclockwise on a wheel of radius 2 cm. The other end B is free to move back and forth along a horizontal bar that goes through the center of the wheel. At time t=0 the rod is situated as in the diagram at the left below. The wheel rotates counterclockwise at 1.5 rev/sec. At some point, the rod will be tangent to the circle as shown in the third picture.
