Q10. The rod OA in figure Q.10 rotates in the horizontal plane such that e = t° rad. At
the same time, collar B is sliding outwards along OA such that its position is given
by r= 100t? mm, where t is in seconds. Using polar coordinates, determine the
velocity vector and its magnitude and the acceleration vector and its magnitude
for this collar when t = 1 sec.

Figure Q.10
In the Soapbox Derby, young participants build nonmotorized cars with very lowfriction wheels. Cars race by rolling down a hill. The track at Akron’s Derby Downs, where the national championship is held, begins with a 55-ft-long section tilted 13° below horizontal.a. What is the maximum possible acceleration of a car moving down this stretch of track?b. If a car starts from rest and undergoes this acceleration for the full 55 ft, what is its final speed in m/s?
The acceleration of a particle is given by a=3t-2.
a. Find the init9ial velocity such that the particle will have the same position at t=4s and t=0s.
