Relative Velocity and Acceleration with Translating and Rotating Frames (continued)
Example: (continued)
vP|F = vQ|F + vP|B + ωB x rQP here QP = r = √ ( 32 + 42 ) = 5
or vR i = vQ i + vP|B i1+ ωB k x r i1 = vQ i + vP|B i1+ r ωB j1
Next apply the coordinate transformation i1 = i cos θ + j sin θ and j1 = - i sin θ + j cos θ
vR i = vQ i + vP|B ( i cos θ + j sin θ ) + r ωB ( - i sin θ + j cos θ ) and collect terms
vR i = i [ vQ + vP|B cos θ - r ωB sin θ ] + j [vP|B sin θ + r ωB cos θ ]
Next equate i and j components. Note: sin θ = 3/5 and cos θ = 4/5 and r = 5
vR = vQ + vP|B cos θ - r ωB sin θ or vR = vQ + (4/5) vP|B - (3/5) r ωB (1)
0 = vP|B sin θ + r ωB cos θ or 0 = (3/5) vP|B + (4/5) r ωB (2)
Equations (1) and (2) contain unknowns vP|B and ωB . Solve (2) for ωB in terms of vP|B and
put into (2). The result is
vP|B = ˗ 20 so vP|B = ˗ 20 i1 m/sec and i1 = (4/5) i + (3/5) j
vP|B = ˗ 16 i ˗ 12 j m/sec (final result)
and then put into (2) to calculate ωB
ωB = 3 So ωB = 3 k rad/sec (final result)
