The wheel is spinning about shaft AB with an angular
velocity of = 10 rad>s, which is increasing at a constant
rate of = 6 rad>s , while the frame precesses about the
z axis with an angular velocity of v = 12 rad>s, which is
increasing at a constant rate of v = 3 rad>s . Determine
the velocity and acceleration of point C located on the rim
of the wheel at this instant.

SOLUTION
The XYZ fixed reference frame is set to coincide with the rotatingxyz reference frame
at the instant considered. Thus,the angular velocity of the wheel at thisinstant can be
obtained by vector addition of and .
If we set the xyz rotating frame to have an angular velocity of ,
Since is always directed along the Zaxis where , then
