PROBLEM 12.92 
Two 2.6-lb collars A and B can slide without friction on a frame, consisting of 
the horizontal rod OE and the vertical rod CD, which is free to rotate about 
CD. The two collars are connected by a cord running over a pulley that is 
attached to the frame at O and a stop prevents collar B from moving. The 
frame is rotating at the rate 12 rad/sθ = and 0.6 ftr = when the stop is 
removed allowing collar A to move out along rod OE. Neglecting friction and 
the mass of the frame, determine, for the position 1.2 ft,r = (a) the 
transverse component of the velocity of collar A, (b) the tension in the cord 
and the acceleration of collar A relative to the rod OE.
