Pin P is attached to the collar shown; the motion of the pin is guided by a slot cut in bar BD and by the collar that slides on rod AE. Rod AE rotates with a constant angular velocity of 6 rad/s clockwise and the distance from A to P increases at a constant rate of 8 ft/s. Determine at the instant shown(a) The angular acceleration of bar BD,(b) The relative acceleration of pin P with respect to barBD.
