Instantaneous Center of Zero and Known Velocities - Example Problem 4.4-7

Center O of the disk has the velocity and acceleration shown in the figure. If the disk rolls without slipping on the horizontal surface, determine the velocity and acceleration of points A, B and C for the instant represented.

Given:

• v_O = 5 i m/s
• a_O = -2 i m/s²
• r = 0.6 m

Find:

• v_A, v_B and v_C
• a_A, a_B and a_C

Locate the disk's IC and then draw the angular velocity, angular acceleration and the velocity directions for points A, B and C. Click on the figure when done.
