Problem 10.62
The bar
AB
rotates about the vertical
y
axis with angular speed
!b.t/
. The disk, whose center is at
C
, can rotate freely relative to
the arm CD as it rolls without slipping on the horizontal surface.
If
!b.t/
is a known function of time, determine the accelera-
tion
EaP
of the point
P
on the periphery of the disk as a function of
the angle
ˇ
. Express your answer in the rotating
xy´
component
system shown.
Solution
The acceleration of
P
can be found by relating it to the acceleration of point
C
, which is easily found. In
doing so, we will need to find the angular velocity and angular acceleration of the disk.
Relating the acceleration of Pto that of C, we obtain
EaPDEaCCE˛d⇥ErP=C CE!d⇥E!d⇥ErP=C;(1)
