At a given instant, the satellite dish has an angular motion \(\omega_1=6\mathrm{\ rad}/\mathrm{s}\text{ and }\dot{\omega}_1=3\ \mathrm{rad}/\mathrm{s}^2\) about the z axis. At this same instant \(\theta=25^{\circ}\), the angular motion about the x axis is \(\omega_2=2\ \mathrm{rad}/\mathrm{s},\text{ and }\dot{\omega}_2=1.5\mathrm{\ rad}/\mathrm{s}^2\). Determine the velocity and acceleration of the signal horn A at this instant.

Question
20-34. Rod AB is attached to collars at its ends by ball-and-socket joints. If collar A moves upward with an acceleration of a4 = {4k }ft/s2. determine the angular acceleration of rod A B and the magnitude of acceleration of collar B. Assume that the rods angular acceleration is directed perpendicular to the rod, and use the result of Prob. 20-33 for oja[{.
Solution
The first step in solving 20 problem number 34 trying to solve the problem we have to refer to the textbook question: 20-34. Rod AB is attached to collars at its ends by ball-and-socket joints. If collar A moves upward with an acceleration of a4 = {4k }ft/s2. determine the angular acceleration of rod A B and the magnitude of acceleration of collar B. Assume that the rods angular acceleration is directed perpendicular to the rod, and use the result of Prob. 20-33 for oja[{.
From the textbook chapter Vibrations you will find a few key concepts needed to solve this.
