Transcribed Image Text:This question builds on an earlier problem. The randomized numbers may have changed, but have your work for the previous problem available to help with this one.
A 10-centimeter rod is attached at one end to a point A rotating counterclockwise on a wheel of radius 5 cm. The other end B is free to move back and forth along a horizontal bar that goes through the center of the wheel. At time t=0 the rod is situated as in the diagram at the left below. The wheel rotates counterclockwise at 1.5
rev/sec. At some point, the rod will be tangent to the circle as shown in the third picture.

(a) Express the x and y coordinates of point A as functions of t:
x= 5 cos(3nt)
and y= 5 sin(3πt)
(b) Write a formula for the slope of the tangent line to the circle at the point A at time t seconds:
-cot (3πt)
(c) Express the x-coordinate of the right end of the rod at point B as a function of t: 5 cos(3лt) + 10 sin (3πt)
(d) Express the slope of the rod as a function of t: -cot (3πt)
(c) Find the first time when the rod is tangent to the circle:
seconds.
