Question
:;R2-8. The double pendulum consists of two rods. Rod A B has a constant angular velocity of 3 rad/s, and rod BC has a constant angular velocity of 2 rad/s. Both of these absolute motions are measured counterclockwise. Determine the velocity and acceleration of point C at the instant shown.
Solution
The first step in solving REVIEW 2 problem number 8 trying to solve the problem we have to refer to the textbook question: :;R2-8. The double pendulum consists of two rods. Rod A B has a constant angular velocity of 3 rad/s, and rod BC has a constant angular velocity of 2 rad/s. Both of these absolute motions are measured counterclockwise. Determine the velocity and acceleration of point C at the instant shown.
From the textbook chapter Three-dimensional Kinetics of a Rigid Body you will find a few key concepts needed to solve this.
