The slotted arm 𝑂𝐴 rotates about a fixed axis through 𝑂. At the instant under consideration, 𝜃 = 30°, 𝜃̇ = 45 deg/s, and 𝜃̈ = 20 deg/s2 . Determine the forces applied by both arm 𝑂𝐴 and the sides of the slot to the 0.2 kg slider 𝐵. Neglect all friction, and let 𝐿 = 0.6 m.
The motion occurs in a vertical plane.
