- Homework Statement
- As shown in the figure, two rods PQ and QR, pinned at Q and rod QR is hinged at R. P moves with a velocity v0 and acceleration a0 along the incline. We are required to find the angular velocities of P and Q, angular acceleration of PQ as well as QR.
- Relevant Equations
- ωPQ=v⊥/ℓ
My line of thinking is as follows:
[tex]\omega_{PQ} = \frac{v_{\perp}}{\ell} = \frac v\ell \frac{\sqrt3}{2}[/tex]
Similarly for rod ##QR##
[tex]\omega_{QR} = \frac{v_{\perp}}{\ell} = \frac v\ell \frac{\sqrt3}{2}[/tex]
Is my reasoning correct?
