Chapter 18, Problem 18-35(choose chapter or problem)
The linkage consists of two 8-lb rods AB and CD and a 10-lb bar AD. When \(\theta = 0^{\circ}\), rod AB is rotating with an angular velocity \(\omega_{AB} = 2 \ rad/s\). If rod CD is subjected to a couple moment \(M = 15 \ lb \cdot ft\) and bar AD is subjected to a horizontal force P = 20 lb as shown, determine \(\omega_{AB}\) at the instant \(\theta = 45^{\circ}\).
