For an interval of motion the drum of radius b = 143 mm turns clockwise at a constant rate w = 2.0 rad/s and causes the carriage P to move to the right as the unwound length of the connecting cable is shortened. The distance h = 1.2 m. Use polar coordinates r and and find the magnitudes of the velocity v and acceleration a of P in the horizontal guide when the angle = 24. Check your solution by a direct differentiation with time of the relation x + h = r. Answers: V= a = i i m/s m/s
